Mr. Callahan explained corrugated metal is a <br />durable material that will update the building. <br /> <br />Councilor Muckle inquired about the impact to the neighbors to the north and <br />south. Chief Parker explained the Fire District met with the neighbors to the south <br />a few years ago to inquire about purchasing their property for off-site parking. <br />There was not an interest to sell, however they did not object to the fire station <br />activities. The neighbors to the north would not be impacted by the addition. <br /> <br />Councilor Sackett voiced his appreciation to the fire district for being <br />conscientious of their neighbors. He asked if the Louisville Revitalization <br />Commission (LRC) had reviewed the plan. Mayor Sisk stated the proposal was <br />not presented to the LRC for their review. <br /> <br />Mayor Pro Tem Marsella supported the addition to the building and asked if the <br />dormitory would accommodate fire fighters and paramedics. Chief Parker stated <br />most of the fire fighters come from outside Louisville and will use the dormitory <br />facilities. He noted this year 50 applications were filed for fire fighter positions. <br /> <br />Mayor Sisk voiced his support of the project and the waivers. He felt the project <br />complements Main Street. Councilor Muck agreed. <br /> <br />Chief Parker thanked the Planning Division; Public Works and the City Manager's <br />office for their assistance.
