State Awards Northampton Twp. $1M For New Fire Station

NORTHAMPTON TOWNSHIP, PA —Northampton Township has been awarded a $1 million state grant through the Redevelopment Assistance Capital Program.

The grant was secured by State Representatives Kristin Marcell and Joe Hogan and State Senator Frank Farry and will be used to offset the cost of constructing the new Northampton Fire Station No. 3, which opened its doors in October.

Located at 3 Township Road the new station is bringing enhanced safety and emergency
response capabilities to the Richboro community and beyond.

“I am proud to have worked with Senator Farry and Representative Hogan to help secure this
grant, which will help defray the costs of construction to develop this state-of-the-art facility for our firefighters,” said Marcell. “This new station represents a major upgrade for emergency response capabilities for our community.”

Marcell, Hogan and Farry collaborated closely to secure the RACP funding for this project.

“I am pleased I was able to help secure this funding for the construction of Northampton Fire
Station No. 3.,” said Farry. “The new station is already bringing enhanced safety to our first responders and the communities they protect.”

“I am thrilled to have been a part of securing this RACP funding,” added Hogan. “This long-term
investment will allow the Northampton Township Fire Department to keep our community safe while serving with efficiency and compassion for decades to come.”

The RACP is a state grant program that supports critical infrastructure projects throughout
Pennsylvania. This new station in Northampton Township will serve as a modern hub for emergency services, supporting the work of local firefighters and first responders and bolstering the safety of the surrounding community.
