Investigate cost
of new fire hall

Huron Country Playhouse Tuesday evening and received a well deserved enthusiastic response
from a packed house. Two of the principal players are Trader Selkirk as Jeffrey Haywood and

Grand Bend council is
looking for prices and plans
for a new fire station even
though the reeve says
nothing should be done
without a new fire agree
ment.
The fire committee sent a
request to council Monday
night asking for a new
building. The committee
said the present conditions
are ridiculous with the fire
department forced to leave
equipment, such as one fire
truck, outside.
Deputy reeve Bob Simp
son said council should go
ahead and check into the
cost of constructing a new
building.
But Reeve Bob Sharen
objected saying council
should first get an agree
ment from Bosanquet and
Stephen for the Townships to
pay for part of the building.
Simpson replied that un
der the current agreement
Grand Bend owned the fire
station.
“Why should Grand Bend
pay the cost and get none of
the benefits. If they’re not
going to pay their fair share
then I don’t think we should
be using our taxpayer’s
dollars,” Reeve Sharen said.
“That is another matter.
We can work out a new
agreement later. I think we
should still goaheadand look
at plans and prices,” said
Simpson.
Council voted to obtain
prices and plans for a new
fire hall.
“It is just another case of
subsidization,” said Sharen
after the vote.
Council also decided to
pay its portion of a new
foam nozzle for the fire
department subject to the
agreement of Stephen and
Bosanquet Townships.
A boat, motor, and oars
were purchased from
Thompson-Warner for $1,-
040. Council will pay for the
purchase with a one year
dock lease valued at $200;
and parking facilities for
two years valued at $785.
The balance will be payed
for in cash.
Council decided to hold a
meeting with the village’s
business people on July 26 at
9 p.m. to discuss parking
problems.
CP air will be making a
commercial on Grand Bend
beach on August 3 and 4.
council was informed.
