Other locations for the proposed fire station were considered, but the current choice made the most sense, according to county officials. (Scott Anderson/Patch)
HOWARD COUNTY, MD A proposed fire station to be located along Cedar Lane Park East in Columbia has drawn ire from the residents in the area who someday might need the services of the controversial fire station.
Chris Chlumsky started an online petition to oppose the plans to build the fire station, which Chlumsky said is estimated to be located approximately 200 feet from a residential housing development to the west along Cedar Lane Manor and an estimated 400 feet from a development to the east along Eliots Oak Road below Route 108.
