Fire station panel weighs 3 sites, no vote yet

Fire Station One Steering Committee · Meeting of July 27, 2026

WESTWOOD — The Fire Station One Steering Committee reviewed concept layouts and cost estimates for three finalist sites. Chair Ford Spalding said architects from Castle Booze Associates presented concepts for 637 High Street, the former Deerfield Elementary School site and Lot 14-131. PMA Consultants estimated about $43.7 million for 637 High Street, $40.3 million for 72 Deerfield Avenue and $43.3 million for Lot 14-131, figures Spalding called planning estimates, "not the final project costs." The committee updated its site evaluation matrix and plans to vote on a recommended site Aug. 7, with the Select Board attending.
