Topeka should consider decommissioning four of its 12 fire stations, says a consultant report created for the city government. Those stations “are beautiful historic landmarks in the Topeka community, but they have served their purpose,” said the report produced by Schwerdt Design Group and PKMR Engineers … All are more than 80 years old and unable to meet current building codes, design standards and community needs, the report said. “The mechanical and electrical systems in these four stations need a lot of replacement to make them even serviceable in the next few years,” it said.
