The Challenge
The Thibodaux Volunteer Fire Department (TVFD) decided to take a proactive role and construct a new fire station in an expanding area of the city in order to maintain their high ratings with the Property Insurance Association of LA. Public dollars were used to assist in the design and construction; therefore, cost effective and timely design were imperative.
The Solution
The new TVFD fire station is located on 2.5 acres in the heart of Acadia Plantation, a Traditional Neighborhood Development (TND) in Thibodaux, LA. TBS partnered with the TVFD and a local architect to design and construct this fully functional fire station. Responsible for the civil package, TBS ensured that the site design met all applicable codes and TND requirements. The TVFD was pleased with the final civil site product, which came in under budget and without delays.
