RINGGOLD, Ga. – An architect will plan a new fire station off Old Alabama Highway.

Catoosa County commissioners approved a $31,650 contract with Jack Killian of KCP Architects during a meeting Tuesday night. Killian will draw up plans for a fire station next to the Woodstation Community Center in the south end of the county.

Fire Chief Randy Camp brought the proposal two weeks ago, but the commissioners tabled a vote at the time. Commission Chairman Steven Henry said they wanted to make sure they picked the right spot for the station. (Commissioner Bobby Winters said he hadn’t even heard of the plans until Camp presented them.)

After Tuesday’s meeting, Henry said the spot Camp proposed made sense. County workers performed a soil test to make sure the new property is safe and they could install field lines to support a new water system.

“We’re a little more comfortable with it,” Henry said.
