Zurich Citizens News, 1965-03-11, Page 7THURSDAY, MARCH 11, 1965 ZURICH CITIZENS NEWS PAGE SEVEN Fire Hall Specifications Altered Council Sets New Tendering Date An addendum to the original specifications for Zurich's new fire hall has been completed and is on its way to contrac- 1wrs. Village council revealed at Monday night's meeting that bidding contractors found the first specifications, drawn up by Peter's Architectural and Me- chanical Drafting Service in Exeter, incomplete as far as the legal aspects of tendering were concerned. The London architectural firm of Blackwell, Haggarty and Buist were called in to make the necessary alterations and additions to the specifications. i Consequently, a new tender- ing date has been set for March 31, 1905, at 6 p.m., about one month later than the original date of February 24. The r e v i s e d specifications call for no exact date when the construction shall be completed, other than to say that "each tenderer shall.state state the earliest, possible completion date consis- tent with established construc- tion methods and practice. Council had hoped the pro- ject could be completed in time for the Dominion holiday, July 1, 1965. It is possible work will now not be finished until later in the summer in view of the change in tendering date. 50 Years Ago MARCH, 1915 A meeting of the members of the bowling team will be held to reorganize for 1915 and to discuss other important busi- ness.
