Fire Station No. 1
(479) 855-8249
103 Town Center, Bella Vista, AR72714
Bella Vistans dedicated it with a ribbon cutting on May 19, 1970. The added protection the facility provided reduced fire insurance rates in the Village. Until that time, there had been numerous devastating fires in the community. That danger was greatly reduced with the new organized department and good equipment.
By September 1984, plans were complete for an expansion of the fire and security headquarters at Town Center. Work began in June 1985 on the construction of a new two-story building that abutted the current station on the east side of the building. It housed the security department on the first floor and additional POA administration offices on the second until 2007, when the city incorporated that that space became the Bella Vista Police Department.
In 2023, the Police Department moved to a new location on Forest Hills Boulevard, and plans are in place to renovate that space and the existing Station 1 to expand that station and better serve both our personnel and citizens.
