CINCY FIRE STATIONS 

ONE OF THE FIREHOUSES CURRENTLY OPERATING IN CINCINNATI IS 125 YEARS OLD. IT IS SLATED TO BE REPLACED WITH TWO OTHERS THAT ARE OVER FIFTY YEARS OLD. ALL ARE CONSIDERED OBSOLETE. THE CINCINNATI ENQUIRER REPORTS THAT THE CITY WILL SPEND TWELVE MILLION DOLLARS TO REPLACE THE CARTHAGE, PLEASANT HILL AND MADISONVILLE HOUSES AND ANOTHER FOUR MILLION DOLLARS OR MORE FOR NEW EQUIPMENT. ALL OF THIS COMES AMID A CITY BUDGET DOCUMENT THAT HAS REVEALED A FUNDING GAP OF ALMOST ONE HUNDRED FORTY MILLION FOR ALL CITY FACILITIES.
