The Harmony Fire District finally is making some progress on its years-long quest to build a new firehouse, which has been sidelined repeatedly by COVID-19, inflation, and cost overruns.
On Friday, June 30, the district announced on Facebook that it expected to sign the full construction contract and hold the formal groundbreaking for the new building in early August.
The new, 13,500-square foot firehouse will be at 424 S. Main St., Zelienople, and is expected to cost $7.7 million. The new location is a five-minute drive southwest from the district’s facility at 543 Main St., Harmony, where the department has been based since it formed in 2015.
