What to expect:
-Fire apparatus and personnel in the 4100–4200 block of Wine Road. -Intermittent smoke throughout the day.
-The structure will be safely burned to the ground as part of the training.
-No anticipated traffic disruptions.
-Once training is complete, all hazards will be properly secured, and the site will be left safe.
We appreciate your support as we continue to train and improve our emergency response capabilities.
