Re: Fire Station #3

["John Danahy" <JDANAHY@turbonet.com>]

Perhaps someone can provide additional information.

 

Residents, and taxpayers, of the City of Moscow are being asked to pay for the construction of a new fire station north of town near the Quail Run addition.  Apparently, this station would help the Moscow Volunteer Fire Department better serve those city residents who live in the north end of town.  Also, this fire station would serve those county residents who live north of town.  But only city residents are being asked to pay for the bond needed to construct the station.  I am not yet opposed to the idea that we need a new station north of town, but I do not understand why only the city residents are expected to pay for it.

 

Can anyone shed some light on this??

Subject: Fire Station #3

Recent events have reminded us all of the great important of public safety. That is just one of the reasons I'm pleased to share with you the flyer and fact sheet being distributed by the Vote Yes Committee. In my opinion, Moscow is very fortunate to have the incredible volunteers who make our fire and emergency medical services run so smoothly and at such a bargain to taxpayers. Fire Station #3 is needed so we can provide the same level of service to north Moscow and out toward Viola.

 

We welcome your comments and questions. If you desire, I could arrange for a sign supporting this project to be placed in your yard.

 

Lastly, Assistant Fire Chief Rod Hackwith is the first speaker tomorrow at the Chamber of Commerce business luncheon hosting the candidates for Mayor and City Council. I hope to see you there- University Inn Best Western at noon.
