Cullman’s fire coverage is now greater than it has ever been after the recent opening of Cullman Fire Rescue Station No. 3.
The department hosted a ribbon cutting for the station Thursday afternoon, and local officials gathered to celebrate its opening and get a look at the new facility.
Cullman Mayor Woody Jacobs said Fire Station No. 3 was a vision for the city for many years, but the end result was worth the wait, as the city’s fire coverage .
“In Cullman fashion, we built something very appropriate,” he said. “It was put in a strategic location to better serve our community as it grows.”
The $4.8 million station features four bays, a classroom, lodging for firefighters and an operations and administrative center.
