Also, the Cobb Purchasing Department will provide furniture, fixtures and equipment not to exceed $550,000.
Current operational costs for the present Fire Station 7 are $26,000.
Estimated operational costs annually for a larger footprint yet a more energy-efficient facility would be $18,000.
The potential savings with the new facility will be about $8,000 annually.
