From Itasca Fire Protection District on Facebook:
Station 67 (Itasca Station #2) is up and running!We will be sharing space on the grounds of Itasca Public Works which is located north of the train tracks. There is an engine (E67) and an ambulance (M67) stationed there. The crew is utilizing an RV for the temporary space the firefighters occupy. This will be in place until a permanent station is built and in service.

Glad to hear Station 67 is up and running.
Which engine will be Engine 67 will it be the 09 or the 14 Pierce? I am guessing the former Roselle engine 65 will be the reserve. What will be the number of the old Roselle engine? Will it be 66R or 67R.
Where will the permanent station be built? Will it be built around the large business park off the Elgin OHare? Will it be built around the 390 driving range?
How many bays will the permanent station 67 have? Two or three?
