We would like to inform the community that Fire Station 81 will be temporarily closed for renovations beginning Monday, January 19. Construction is expected to last approximately 4 to 5 months.
Originally built over fifty years ago, Fire Station 81 no longer meets current safety or operational standards. The upcoming renovations will improve the station’s functionality, ensure greater code compliance, and enhance the department’s ability to serve the community, though additional upgrades may be needed in the future to fully address all operational needs.
During construction, Station 81’s crew will temporarily relocate to the former Iowa Community Center at 338 N. Iowa Avenue. Emergency response services will continue without interruption.
For questions or more information, contact the Villa Park Fire Department at 630-833-5350 and visit our website. We appreciate your understanding and support as we work to improve our facilities and continue to serve you with excellence.
Construction has already begun at the Iowa Community Center, so please refer to the map on our website for public parking availability and the path to access the park, skatepark, and soccer fields during this period. More updates will be posted to this page, as well as on social media, as construction progresses.
