Bryan Firefighters Training At The Former Bryan ISD Administration Building Before It Comes Down

Before Brazos County demolishes the former Bryan ISD administration building, Bryan firefighters have been given permission to conduct two weeks of training. Firefighter Chris Lamb tells WTAW News that training will take place during daytime and nighttime hours. The training will involve firefighters from all BFD stations. And the exercises will include the use of artificial smoke that is expected to been seen outside the building. Click below to hear comments from Chris Lamb, visiting with WTAW’s Bill Oliver.   Earlier this month, Brazos County commissioners were told it will take $61 million dollars to redevelop the land after the former Bryan ISD administration building is imploded later this summer. Commissioners expressed no opposition during their May 7th meeting to recommendations made by the county’s project manager. Trevor Lansdown presented plans for a three story building that would be occupied by the precinct 4 justice of the peace and constable’s departments, adult probation, and the public defender’s office. The new building will also have its own parking garage. Lansdown says that is to keep employees from having to cross Texas to get to the Roy Kelly parking garage. There will also be a skywalk over Texas connecting the new building to the courthouse. Lansdown said that is because people working in the new building have regular business in the courthouse.
