Tualatin Valley Fire & Rescue Hosts Community Meeting on Station 20 Rebuild
On Wednesday, July 16, at 7 p.m., Tualatin Valley Fire & Rescue invites Newberg-area residents to attend a community meeting at Station 20 in downtown Newberg at 414 E Second Street to learn more about the station’s upcoming rebuild. Attendees will have the opportunity to view station design renderings, hear a brief overview of the proposed project, and ask questions of district leadership.
Built in 1940 with some remodeling over time, Station 20 currently houses eight personnel per shift (24 total), who staff an engine, a rescue, a medic, and half of TVF&R’s Water Rescue Team. The station maintains one of three wildland caches, equipment taken when a wildland team is mobilized with a Yamhill County deployment.
Funded by a general obligation bond that voters passed in 2021, the rebuild would bring the station up to current seismic standards and incorporate operational efficiencies for improved response.
Site work is expected to begin this winter.
