As the twentieth century came into its own, Brigham City officials saw the need to have their own office and council space, improved quarters for the fire department, and their own jail. Although the idea of a city hall had been broached on-and-off for a few years, there were no concrete plans or agreement on its location. The latter was brought to the attention of local residents with a Box Elder News article entitled \u201cLet us Protest<\/a>,\u201d simply signed \u201cCitizen\u201d in the March 7, 1907, edition: \u201cThe matter I refer to is that of acquiring property on First South for the purpose of erecting a city hall, etc.\u201d and goes on to point out that this is an area where most of the city fathers are located, and could possibly benefit from its purchase.<\/p>\n

\n

On the contrary the city owns land in the very heart of our business district, immediately north of our County Court House and that property stands there a disgrace to the this fair city. It corners on the cross roads of our two principal streets, Main and Forest, and though to us who have grown up to see it as it is continuously, it is no more than a constant reminder that our officials are not doing their duty by their neglecting it. It is an eyesore to strangers who come of Forest Street and behold the mutilated fence and unfinished premises. Just try to see in your mind\u2019s eye, city fathers, that piece of ground parked\u201cParked\u201d refers to being planted as a park. as in the Court House grounds, and in the midst of it all a beautiful hall and fire department.1<\/a><\/sup>Box Elder News,<\/em> \u201cLet us Protest,\u201d<\/a> March 7, 1907, 1.<\/span>\n<\/blockquote>\n

A reply to \u201cCitizen\u201d from City Council member Andrew Funk appeared in the next issue, noting that city finances did not \u201cand will not for some time, be in condition to meet the expense of building a creditable\u00a0[sic] city hall,\u201d and that no official move had been made to purchase any property. Funk continued that the community would \u201cbe better served by changing that part of Forest Street, located north of the court house\u00a0[sic] into an attractive street with parked walks on each side.\u201d2<\/a><\/sup>Box Elder News,<\/em> \u201cReply to Citizen,\u201d<\/a> March 14, 1907.<\/span> The unpaved city-owned \u201cneglected\u201d property north of the courthouse was referred to alternately as Rees Square or Market Square, the latter being its official title on city maps.<\/p>\n

The issue caught fire, and a public meeting was called for June 3 at the Opera House<\/a> \u201c. . . for the purpose of considering the advisability of holding an election to determine whether or not the city shall purchase the Jos. F. Hansen corner on Main Street or any other property for a future city hall building.\u201d3<\/a><\/sup>Box Elder News,<\/em> \u201cCall for Mass Meeting,<\/a> May 30, 1907.<\/span>There were heated arguments put forth on both sides. For one, that the grounds were in a \u201cdepression\u201d and that if the fire station were to be built in connection with the city hall, it would be an \u201cuphill pull for the boys to all parts in the part of town south and east of the station.\u201d<\/p>\n

The men who circulated the petition argued in favor of \u201cthe site where the library now stands\u201d and their reasons included the fact that: \u201cThe city owns one acre of ground and has the chance to secure at least 48-1\/2 feet, which is ample for all purposes.\u201d Proponents added that if the city was not able to build immediately, the area \u201ccan be made to look presentable\u201d adding that \u201ca two or two and one-half rod street could be nicely laid out\u201d and the area \u201cenclosed as a\u00a0park as the county has done.\u201d4<\/a><\/sup>Box Elder News, \u201cCity Hall site,\u201d<\/a> May 30, 1907.<\/span>\n

The Main and Forest site was not a surety, even with the possibility of expanding its boundaries. There was also the suggestion that the Minnie Snow property at Forest and First West where there was a building (Lorenzo and Minnie Snow\u2019s large former home, “Minnie’s Palace”) ready for use.<\/p>\n

A headline in the Box Elder News of June 6, 1907, tells what happened: \u201cDecides that city has enough real estate\u201d and the article went on to say that the proposition to buy J. F. Hanson\u2019s property was decided in the negative. The idea was \u201cthat the square north of the County Court House is large enough for city hall purposes and that the same be improved and beautified as fast as the city is able.\u201dBox Elder News,<\/em> \u201cDecides that city has enough real estate,\u201d June 6, 1907. That wording sealed the Main and Forest location, although the exact placement of the building was not decided until later.
General discussion continued within the city council. In March, 1908, published minutes state that \u201cthe matter of a building suitable or a city hall, jail and fire station was referred to the committee on finance.\u201dIbid, Minutes of City Council: March 26, 1908. In February, 1909, the mayor appointed a special committee consisting of Wynn L. Eddy, John P. Christensen, and John H. Horsley to \u201csecure plans and estimates of a suitable city hall, and to find if the necessary funds can be raised for this purpose.\u201d5<\/a><\/sup>City Council Minutes, February 4, 1909.<\/span>\n

It is interesting to note that the focus of the building changed from city hall to fire station in future references to its construction and dedication, perhaps because the main floor would be occupied by the fire department and the upstairs would be city hall. Fire department equipment was still housed in an 1897 wooden building. The department owned the equipment but voted in 1901 to turn it over to the city, making the city responsible for its housing and upkeep.<\/p>\n

Even though the exact location of the building on the property had not been determined, its description was published under \u201cbuilding activities\u201d on April 22, 1909:<\/p>\n

\n

Chief interest centers in the Firemen\u2019s building, which will also contain rooms or the city officials. The plans are proposed by Architect A. Funk<\/a> as follows: Basement containing store rooms for electrical and water works supplies, under the main floor. In the east end will be built a cement room for the accommodation of tramps and other undesirable citizens who wish to lodge with the city. At the north east end of the basement will be the hose tower which will rise to a height of 70 feet. In the top of the tower will be a belfry. The ground floor will be given over to the firemen for truck stalls, excepting a corner of the south east end, where a jail cell will be put in. This cell will not connect in any way with the \u201chobo\u201d apartments underneath but will be used for the more respectable \u201cdrunks etc.\u201d The stairway leads up from the main entrance on the west end and the upstairs will be divided into five rooms, viz: a large assembly room for city council and the public, two city offices, firemen\u2019s library and the lavatories. The building will be constructed of reinforced cement and pressed brick, with a Spanish metal tile roof, in all to cost approximately $7,000. The site has not yet been decided upon.\u201d6<\/a><\/sup>Box Elder News,<\/em> \u201cBuilding Activities<\/a>,\u201d April 22, 1909.<\/span>\n<\/blockquote>\n

A special meeting to determine the exact location was set for May 5, at 8 p.m., reported as follows:<\/p>\n

\n

In connection with the building of the Fire Station, the parking of the square was considered and as decided by the Council it is proposed to make the street just north of the Court House grounds, 3 rods wide including an 8 foot walk on each side giving the roadway a passage of 2 rods clear . . .
Then it is proposed to open an alley on the north side between Joseph F. Hansen\u2019s property and where the library now stands, 2 rods wide, running through the block – in line with the one running back of First National Bank Building . . .
It is proposed to build the station on the north west corner 10 feet back from the west sidewalk and ten feet back from the north alley, with cement approaches of course.7<\/a><\/sup>Box Elder News,<\/em> \u201cThe New Fire Station<\/a>,\u201d May 13, 1909.<\/span>\n<\/blockquote>\n

This was the location of the MIA Library, and it was left to the library officers to decide where to put the library, with the city council noting they would \u201cgladly make room\u201d on the adjacent city property. This was quickly decided, and the newspapers soon reported that the library would be \u201cpulled back on the square to about the center of the block and turned to face north, making the entrance from the street that will be opened along that side.\u201d8<\/a><\/sup>Box Elder News,<\/em> \u201cLibrary on the move<\/a>,\u201d August 15, 1909.<\/span>\n

Construction was soon underway, followed closely by both local newspapers, and by December 30, 1909, it was announced that the \u201cfinishing touches\u201d were being put on the building and that a \u201chousewarming\u201d event was being planned in the Opera House dance hall.9<\/a><\/sup>Box Elder News,<\/em> \u201cFinishing Touches,\u201d December 30, 1909.<\/span> This \u201cpleasing and brilliant affair\u201d was held in early March.<\/p>\n

Moving fire equipment and city offices took place over the next few months, and \u201cgeneral rejoicing\u201d was announced in June, 1910, in that the \u201ccity offices have been removed to their new home in the fire station.\u201d They were described as having four rooms, a spacious hall, and a toilet.10<\/a><\/sup>Box Elder News,<\/em> \u201cIn New Quarters<\/a>,\u201d June 9, 1910.<\/span> A finishing touch was moving the fire bell to the city hall belfry, through arrangements with John H. Bott. Improvements continued along the block, with the cement sidewalk running the length of the block from Main to First East Street installed in 1911.11<\/a><\/sup>Box Elder News,<\/em> July 17, 1911.<\/span>\n

<\/p>\n

By this time, mechanization had taken over the streets. The Box Elder Journal of November 27, 1913, notes the arrival of a new fire truck with the ability to speed along to a fire at 20 miles per hour. By 1917 the department requested another motorized truck, but World War I bought other concerns, including many of its members called into service. Firemen were excited over the arrival of a gleaming 15-foot American LaFrance in 1919. It had a 125 horsepower straight-eight engine that would go up to 65 miles per hour. The department added first aid equipment for fire rescue, including an \u201cinhaler,\u201d in 1927.12<\/a><\/sup>Sarah Yates, \u201cBrigham Fire Department Marks 100 Years Service,\u201d Box Elder News,<\/em> Brigham City, UT, November 19, 1978, 8.<\/span><\/div>\n
With so much equipment, by 1934 the Fire Department had outgrown its quarters. In 1935 the city purchased the Glover property at 42 W. Forest, a 40 x 224 foot building erected originally as a livery stable in 1905 and housing Owen Auto Service, and also acquired adjoining corner property where the Opera House had been located. The Glover building was to be remodeled and equipped to house the fire department. At the same time, the Main Street building would have a new front entrance and city offices expanded from upstairs into a remodeled downstairs.13<\/a><\/sup>Sarah Yates, \u201cBrigham Fire Department Marks 100 Years Service,\u201d Box Elder News,<\/em> Brigham City, UT, November 19, 1978, 8. This article was based primarily on Fire Department minutes.<\/span>In June, 1935, it was reported that the firefighters would be \u201cmoved from city hall to the new quarters within a few days\u201d and reported it was a \u201cspacious new building, purchased recently by the city, which would provide ample room\u201d and remodeled to accommodate the fire trucks and equipment. It had been decided that the signal bell would remain in the City Hall tower.14<\/a><\/sup>Box Elder News,<\/em> \u201cNew Building to House Fire Fighters,\u201d June 7, 1935.<\/span>The newly equipped station included two front entrances, automatic doors, and plenty of floor space for new equipment. This soon included a new American LaFrance engine, which arrived in May 1938. It cost $8,500 and boasted a 12-cylinder 190 horsepower engine, capable of pouring 500 gallons of water per minute, and was equipped with a 200-gallon booster tank for immediate use.15<\/a><\/sup>Yates, 8.<\/span>By September 1935, the remodeling of City Hall was nearly finished, with a new front of red pressed brick, black rodded joints, and the rest of the tower painted to match the main entrance. Doors and windows were surrounded with ornamental white granite. Office space was more than doubled, the vault enlarged, restrooms improved, a large oak counter with its front covered with imitation tiled green leather was in the main floor office. The council chamber and rooms were moved to the second floor, and a 60-foot steel flagpole had been erected.16<\/a><\/sup>Box Elder News,<\/em> \u201cRemodeling of City Hall Nears Finish,\u201d September 6, 1935.<\/span>Citizens were invited to visit the city buildings in October 1935, with tours offered of the city hall, fire station, and even the jail \u201cmade attractive\u201d in this flurry of building, with that facility to be shown by Chief of Police John M. Burt. Several dignitaries spoke, the high school band played, and citizens had an opportunity to see the improvements.17<\/a><\/sup>Box Elder News,<\/em> \u201cCitizens Visit City Buildings,\u201d October 15, 1935. The October 19, 1935, Box Elder News<\/em> featured photographs of the new and old City Hall.<\/span>The Fire Department continued to upgrade equipment. Several problems had been encountered with the 1938 engine during the World War II years, but new equipment was not available. Even after the war ended, there was a two-year wait, but a new Mack truck finally arrived in 1949.18<\/a><\/sup>Yates, 8.<\/span>There was also the question of ambulance service. In August 1947, the city firefighters battled a fire that destroyed the old Central School located on Main Street across from the tabernacle. Up until this time, local undertaker Harold Felt had provided ambulance service, although the firemen were trained and had first aid equipment to use on calls. Felt approached the department and suggested that they take over ambulance service in 1947, rather than using a hearse. The city had no money allotted to purchase an ambulance. Felt presented the city with a vehicle in 1950, opening a new phase in services.19<\/a><\/sup>Yates, 8.<\/span><\/div>\n
