Commissioner Jacobs said that there is a community center at Palmer's Grove, but he wondered if there was any consideration in talking about this new site to having a large enough meeting space so that it could serve this part of the County. Budget Director Donna Dean said that they have not discussed this option with the fire district, but they can offer it for consideration. Commissioner Jacobs said that this is an opportunity to partner with someone else. EMS Director Nick Waters said that the fire district would probably be in favor of it because they have asked if the County would consider an EMS bay. Commissioner Jacobs asked where they stood with widening plans for I-85 because there were concerns about whether there would be an impact on the current site of the station. Nick Waters has not received an update on this, but he will check.
