U.S. Rep. Matt Cartwright, Moosic Fire Chief Chuck Molinaro and Moosic Mayor Robert Bennie on Monday revealed updated plans for a new $3 million joint fire, police and public safety station in Moosic.

The announcement was made at a groundbreaking ceremony at the Greenwood Hose Company attended by local, state and county officials, along with Moosic police and firefighters.

The $3 million Community Project Funding, secured by Rep. Cartwright, will support the construction of a new, centrally located facility that will surpass the capacity of existing facilities and adequately serve and protect the borough by bringing fire and police services together under one roof.

The Moosic Police Department recently had to close its headquarters due to mold while the Greenwood Fire Department is unable to store its engine properly due to space constraints.

“Right now, Moosic’s police and fire departments are working tirelessly to keep up with the demands of the job despite challenges with their facilities,” said Cartwright, D-Moosic. “We’re lucky that we have such capable and dedicated first responders who are always willing to go above and beyond the call of duty, and they deserve the facilities and equipment they need to do their jobs effectively.”
