The Twin Falls Fire Department needs to replace all three of its stations, and it may want to do so all at once. Pivot North Architecture released a report earlier this year that rated the fire stations on their ability to meet current and future needs. It also estimated the costs to rebuild those stations and what it would cost to build an additional station in northeast Twin Falls. A citizen committee has taken that study and will make its recommendations Monday for a plan of action to the City Council. Fire Chief Les Kenworthy has sat in on all the advisory group’s meetings and believes the committee may ask to postpone the building of Fire Station Five on Hankins Road. “We don’t have the funds to staff a full (new) station at this date,” Kenworthy told the Times-News.
