Fire company relocation shelved amid city budget strains
The Independent Hose Company relocation plan stalls as Mayor Ronald N. Young cites two main obstacles. Approval from the Water Resources Administration to fill a flood plain strip linking the site to Baughman’s Lane is required, and the project’s high cost may exceed next year’s budget. If WRA approves, construction would wait until fiscal 1977. The referendum petition on the ballot was ruled invalid, with legal challenges potential. An environmental impact statement will be prepared to support the fill request, arguing minimal flood risk and no water quality impact.
