Residents call for Station 56 to reopen
The closure has remained a contentious issue among residents, some of whom say the station's absence leaves the community more vulnerable during emergencies.
Ryan Campbell, the District 2 supervisor whose district includes the station, has repeatedly opposed its closure. He said Tuesday that he believes the county has the money to restore the station's funding.
Campbell was among the supervisors who voted against previous efforts to close the station and said he plans to continue working to restore its funding.
