   City celebrates opening of Fire Station No . 9
   FAYETTEVILLE , Ark . — The City of Fayetteville invites the public to attend the opening of a new fire station on Friday , Aug . 5 , at 8 a . m . The event will take place at Fayetteville Fire Station No . 9 , located at 2250 S . School Ave .
   This project is part of an infrastructure bond program approved by Fayetteville voters as one of 10 separate questions during a special election held in April 2019 . Phase 1 of this bond project will provide two of the planned three additional fire stations , as well as apparatus to support ongoing growth for fire and emergency response . The new facilities will be staffed with existing personnel and fire companies .  
   The city analyzes call history and historical response time data using its Geographic Information Systems . Analyses show that if additional fire stations can be placed in the most optimal locations , parts of the city could see a minute decrease in response times , which could have a critical impact for lives and property .
   Fayetteville Mayor Lioneld Jordan and Fire Chief Brad Hardin will share brief remarks during the event . Parking at the station is limited; carpooling is encouraged .
