Summary
The 1983 fire station serving southern Olathe has serious foundation settling, moving walls, and temporary HVAC. The council approved $2.2 million in structural repairs to keep it safe and open, but the full rebuild was pulled from the capital plan over budget concerns, and a new Fire Station 10 for the growing southwest remains unfunded.
