Property was purchased at 13117 and 13119 Tesson Ferry Road on September 30, 2009 at a cost of $800,000. The Board of Directors of Mehlville Fire Protection District voted unanimously at their meeting on September 17, 2009 to make an offer to purchase the property. The property is located on the west side of Tesson Ferry approximately 1.5 miles south of I-270. The purchase consists of the two pieces of property that are equivalent to about 1.0 acres. A vacant building currently is located on the property and the District plans to use it for training before it is demolished.

Chief Tim White and Board Members, Aaron Hilmer, Bonnie Stegman and Ed Ryan anticipate constructing a new Fire House for the District to replace the old Fire House 4 that is located directly across the street from the newly purchased property. The old fire house was constructed in 1965 and is in need of complete renovation and is too small to house today's larger apparatus and accommodate increased numbers of personnel.

The Board of Directors is currently in discussions with architects to develop a construction plan, timetable and subsequent construction design for the new fire house. The Board would like to see the construction completion of the new house in early 2011.
