Montgomery County Fire and Rescue Services Temporarily Relocates Hillandale Fire Station 24 Due to Mold Remediation
Montgomery County Fire and Rescue Services (MCFRS) has temporarily relocated personnel from Hillandale Fire Station 24, located at 13216 New Hampshire Avenue, due to the detection of mold in the building.
