This week, firefighters who work in the Silver City area have a new place to call home.Forsyth County Fire Chief Danny Bowman welcomed local officials and community members during a special ceremony Friday to the new Fire Station 7, which opened Monday. “Let’s begin by saying this has been a long time coming,” Bowman said. “This fire station, let’s be clear, belongs to Silver City.”The station is next to Silver City Elementary School on Dahlonega Highway.The $1.3 million facility is a far cry from the $3,500 building constructed in 1974.
