"That really was the best possible outcome," said Jason Seiber, president of the Crescent Hill Community Council.
Seiber and residents of the area around the station at Pope Street and Frankfort Avenue had been vocal about their opposition to a recommendation from a consulting firm that the firehouse be closed.

Seiber said he believes the public outcry over that recommendation, as well as others in the study, helped steer the direction of the final plan.
"It made a big difference," Seiber said. -

I think the study was very well intentioned, and I support everything that the city has done and the way that they have gone about the process," Crescent Hill Community Council member Jason Seiber says.
The plan for Louisville would entail eliminating or consolidating five fire stations and getting rid of six trucks.
Over the next 15 years, the Metro Government would build nine new fire stations instead.
"We want to impact the process now before the wrong numbers are in the budget in front of them," Seiber says.
The mayor's office says all of this is is just a plan. There's nothing set in stone yet, which is good news for some communities who say these arrows are a step in the wrong direction.
Seiber says the planned closure of one fire station would turn his neighborhood into an island -- cut off from fire support altogether: "We have a section of railroad tracks that you heard mentioned tonight that basically chops our neighborhoods in half -- everything to the northside of those tracks.
...
I think we have a lot more work ahead of us," Seiber says.
