A new, state-of-the-art Fire Tower is being constructed. $1.4M facility funded by grants received by the State of Ohio. The new Fire Tower is expected to be completed by Spring 2025.
Medina County Career Center provides a safe convenient and cost-effective way to deliver live fire training. Many of the tasks the fire service performs is physical in nature; because of that fact, it is important that Medina County’s first-responders are provided training that is as realistic as possible.
MCCC’s fire tower, burn trailer, and confined space training area are available to first-responders countywide. NFPA 1403, “…requires conducting live fire training evolutions ensuring they are conducted in safe facilities and that the exposure to health and safety hazards for the fire fighters receiving the training is minimized.” (NFPA 1403, Chapter 1)
Medina County Safety Services are welcome to submit a Building Use Request Form to request reservation of the Fire Tower.
