(KLZA)-- Efforts are moving forward on a new home for the Humboldt Volunteer Fire Department.
Fire Chief Rex Kapel and Secretary Larry Stauffer met with the City Council this week to provide an update on the project.
The Quad County Museum donated the former Humboldt Hospital facility to the Fire Department for a place to house equipment as well as the Humboldt Rescue Squad Ambulances. The department has outgrown its current facility in downtown Humboldt.
The estimate for the project is $400,000. Currently grant writing efforts are underway to secure financing for the project.
