Challenge

Emergency services response times became longer as the community grew, and the township was in need of a new facility in closer proximity to new developments.

Solution

Catalyst met with EMS personnel to understand their wants and needs, and designed a green-tech EMS station to bring that vision alive. The new centrally located EMS facility will improve response times as well as transform an abandoned lot of land into an eye-catching community feature.

Elements

Four 45’ long bays with garage doors on both sides of the building allow for rapid response drive-through access, two separate dormitories, two laundry rooms, a training room, solar panels on the roof, electric car charging stations, and a training room that can be used for voting on election day, fulfilling a township need for more polling locations.
