Guilford County Commissioners approve new school and fire station

The new fire station will be located on Gatewood Avenue.

GUILFORD COUNTY, N.C. — Guilford County Commissioners approved several items on their agenda Thursday. 

One of the items involved bringing the Guilford County and Greensboro City workers together and an $8-million fire station with EMS workers in house. 

First responders have currently been working out of a facility, built-in 1973. During Thursday's meeting commissioners said they were proud to give those workers a new space. The new building will be located on Gatewood Avenue.

The board also approved a $19-million bond for a new school in Summerfield, called Revolution Academy. The new charter school on Oak Ridge Road will open in the fall. County commissioners said the bond won't cost taxpayers any money.
