WEATHERFORD â Now that the Weatherford College Fire Academy has been asked to vacate its home of the last several years, college trustees this week approved the transfer of items of equipment to Parker County ESD 1.
The final transfer of a 24-by-50-foot portable classroom building and five Conex container units used for fire training is pending approval by the ESD 1 board of commissioners.
The ESD and college have been involved in ongoing discussions for many months regarding a potential partnership, as the fire academy searches for a location to continue its operations. Its former location is off Fort Worth Highway in Weatherford, where the city is constructing its new public safety building.
