The Salina Fire Department’s new Station 4 is now open. Salina Fire Chief Shane Pearson tells KSAL News the new station is much-needed. They have outgrown the current facility and need to expand it to better serve the community. At around 20,000 square feet, the new Station 4 is about triple the size of the old Station 4 which was built in the 1960s, located near the intersection of East Crawford and Marymount Road. Older stations, such as Station 1 and Station 2, built in the 1950s and 1960s, are landlocked and undergo renovations rather than being relocated.
