Colfax Avenue Infill Study Update |
|
|
A Grass Valley tradition which has been in place for 70 years has succumbed to technology and old age. High maintenance and upgrade costs plus non use have brought an end to the fire alarm pull boxes in the City. Once the alarm system is completely decommissioned, individuals will be able to purchase the alarm boxes for $175 with the proceeds designated to refurbish the old fire station on Race Street into a fire museum, as well as help restore the 1927 Seagraves. Contact Jean at 274-4370 to reserve an alarm box. |
