JANN HENDRY/Acorn Newspapers STILL IN SERVICE- Ventura County Fire Station No. 33 sits on the banks of Lake Sherwood and serves Hidden Valley and the southern portions of Westlake Village in Thousand Oaks. Built in 1949, it was hit by a brushfire that took the roof off in the early 1950s. The station is earmarked for relocation so that a newer facility will be closer to more densely populated areas on the southside of the 101 Freeway. CIty officials say Thousand Oaks pays too much for fire protection services.
