Rehoboth Town Council opened the first ever fire station, constructed at a cost of N$4.1 million.

The acting chief executive officer of Rehoboth Town Council says Rehoboth is experiencing growth, and with growth, the safety and security of residents became necessary.

The Municipality of Swakopmund has upgraded the fire station at the Democratic Resettlement Community (DRC) informal settlement in order to shorten response times in the event of a fire incident.
