Voters Decide On Proposed Firehouse In Bedford

BEDFORD, NY — Voters in the Bedford Village Fire District approved the revised proposal for a new firehouse. The vote, according to the district's Facebook post, was 895 to 457.

"We are most grateful to the many citizens who were involved in the development of this important project," the district posted.

The community was asked to approve a bond resolution in the amount of $14.75 million, which is almost 16 percent lower than the resolution that was narrowly defeated in April.

Officials said the median impact per household would be less than $300 per year, or about 82 cents per day.

A list of frequently asked questions about the proposal is on the Bedford Village Fire District website.
