Tualatin Valley Fire & Rescue: Station 58

West Linn - Station 58

(Bolton)

Constructed:

Mid-1950’s

Size:

5,600 sq. ft.

Project Description:

The District is working with the city of West Linn to purchase adjacent lots that will allow for construction of a modern 11,800 sq. ft. station and community room with significantly improved access to Highway 43.

The architectural design contract for Station 58 was signed late 2007 and preliminary design work is underway. TVF&R staff has met with the City of West Linn Planning Department to review applicable planning codes and develop conditional use applications. Concept drawings have been shared with the Bolton Neighborhood Association and its recommendations have been incorporated into revised drawings.

Estimated construction start:

Early to mid-2009

Background:

The Bolton station serves the northern half of the city of West Linn, bordered by Interstate 205 and the city of Lake Oswego. Although the area encompasses a small segment of retail trade, the majority is comprised of single- and multi-family housing. This older framed structure does not meet current ADA, seismic, or a variety of District standards. The apparatus bays are too small and lack the overhead clearance and depth required to house standard District apparatus. The current location results in delayed response times as crews must circle the block to access Highway 43.
