Napa Co. Fire Station 220 Grand Opening Event Planned

NAPA VALLEY, CA - From the Napa County Fire Department: The Napa County Fire Department (NCFD) is hosting a ribbon-cutting ceremony Saturday for its new Fire Station 220 located in the Berryessa Estates community, in the Pope Valley area.

The event, which is open to the public and includes a BBQ and a station tour, is scheduled from 10 a.m. to noon, on Aug. 19, at 2386 Stagecoach Canyon Road, in the Berryessa Estates community in the Pope Valley area.

Attendees include Napa County Board of Supervisors Belia Ramos, Diane Dillon, who represents the area, and Brad Wagenknecht, NCFD Chief Barry Biermann, NCFD Assistant Chief Geoff Belyea, and Pope Valley Station Volunteer Chief Mark Amador.

“This station will provide the local residents of Berryessa Estates and Pope Valley Volunteer firefighters with a fire engine to respond to emergencies,” Biermann said. “It is our hope that this will also have a positive effect for property owners trying to obtain reasonable home owners insurance.”

The project cost about $830,000 and was funded by NCFD.

“In a time of emergency, seconds count,” Biermann said. “Having a fire engine within the community with volunteer members of NCFD Station 220 ready to respond will increase the odds for saving lives and property.”
