Struthers moves closer to fire station bond levy

STRUTHERS

City council approved a resolution this week that moves Struthers closer to placing a 2-mill bond levy on the November ballot, to raise $2 million for the construction of a new fire station on Elm Street.

The bond levy would cost a homeowner with a $100,000 home $70 a year, or $5.83 a month.

Building a new fire station has been a top priority for city council since January, when Dan Becker donated a piece of land between Elm Court and Elm Street to the city for the purpose of building a new fire station.
