Following the rejection of plans for a new downtown fire station by the Brentwood Planning Commission, Councilmember Tony Oerlemans has filed an appeal, which will be discussed by the City Council. Oerlemans expressed concerns that the commission failed to engage with the specifics of the proposal, focusing instead on minor details. As a long-standing Brentwood resident, he stressed the importance of timely decisions to prevent further delays in ensuring adequate fire services for the community.
I felt the City Council should research it themselves and be able to make that decision. I think maybe we could ask if you (fire district) are interested in changing any of that? Could you make any modifications?
As a Brentwood resident for over 20 years, I remember the obsolete Fire Station 54, which was previously used by East Contra Costa Fire Protection District.
I don't think the residents of Brentwood should have to suffer for another two or three years without an additional fire station.
