Porthill fire hall going up

September 30, 2013

Here is a photo of Hall Mountain Fire Association's new Porthill Fire Hall #1 under construction. The new fire hall provides much needed room for the apparatus and space for indoor training.

Construction began in July and the framing started Saturday, September 14. It will be "dried-in" by early October.

Hall Mt. Fire anticipates moving it's two Porthill engines into the building prior to winter.

The project is funded entirely by donations from Hall Mt. Fire Association members, area businesses and fund raising events hosted by the Hall Mt. Fire Auxiliary. Land for the facility is provided through a lease agreement with Mr. & Mrs. Charles "Punk" Johnson.

Completion of the project will depend on further donations and fund raisers.
