Flagler County broke ground on its new fire station and administration building on Nov. 13. 

“As our community continues to grow and evolve," Commission Chair Andy Dance said at the groundbreaking, "this building represents a proactive investment to ensure that our first responders have the space, tools, and technology to respond quickly, train effectively, and operate efficiently."

The new station will be built at 1600 West State Road 100 and will be completed in late 2026. The building will be 19,500 square feet in size and have dorm rooms, training and fitness spaces, apparatus bays and administrative offices under one roof.

The project will cost around $13 million to complete, $10 million of which is funded through state appropriations and the remaining funds stemming from a local county match.

State appropriations funding brought the project “from vision to reality,” Dance said.

This is the first fire station in Flagler County that will be built by the Flagler County Commission, Fire Chief Mike Tucker said. Tucker credited the success with the combined efforts of Flagler County's staff, the commission and the support from state representatives, fellow local elected officials and the support of Flagler County's residents.

“This is a big day,” he said. “We’re excited for the future.”
