New YFD Fire House At Ridge Hill

[61MACKBR1 222]

Can anyone tell us whether or not the Newly Revised Plans for the Ridge Hill site in Yonkers, still has for a New Yonkers Fire Department Station to be constructed? (Maybe a New Station 10, that had be rumored, to which not only would Station 10 with Engine 310 be located to Ridge Hill, but that a New Frontline Ladder Company would be activated [Ladder 76] and housed at this New Station 10?), I just read about the 2006 Yonkers Capital Budget Plan approved the other day, allocated $4.1 Million Dollars to the Yonkers Fire Department (Presumably for the Purchase of a New Rescue One [Even Bigger] and to replace Ladders 70 and 74], but I wasn't sure if the Purchase of a New Ladder 76 was also included in this?

Also, any word on where the YFD Ridge Hill Bunker is relocating to, now that it appears that the Ridge Hill Project (with that potential New Fire Station 10) is closer to reality?
