I don't care about Silver Spring.

If Worcester goes to paid professional firemen, wouldn't the county just lease the building from OPA?

Worcester is not likely to go to paid fire fighters county-wide any time soon. As to speculation about whether or not the county would lease any OPA-owned structures based on speculation about the OPVFD dissolving, I leave that double speculation to you.

We need a firehouse, no matter what

Need or want? Who determines need? We already have two.

As I said previously, this entire discussion is academic at beast. The fire department is going to build a second station in White Horse Park and it will eventually be manned, whether needed or not.
