The union representing firefighters in the town of Normal is continuing its campaign to keep the soon-to-close College Avenue fire station open even after a new station opens on the east side of town.

In this Sound Ideas interview with WGLT's Charlie Schlenker, Town Mayor Chris Koos talks about what more the town can do to address the union's request.
