CHAMPAIGN – The Bondville Fire Corp. has notified Plastipak Packaging Inc. that it will no longer provide fire protection services for its unincorporated Champaign plant as of Jan. 1.
As this point, Plastipak does not have replacement coverage lined up, according to city officials.
City officials have approached the company, which employs about 700 people locally, about the possibility of annexing the plant at 3310 W. Springfield Ave. and providing fire coverage, but have not yet gotten a response, said Craig Rost, deputy city manager for development.
