NEW FIRE STATION
The erection of a new fire station at
Grangemouth Road, Falkirk, to serve the Falkirk and Grangemouth areas, was
mentioned in a letter from the Clerk to the Central Fire Area Joint Committee,
and referred to in a minute of the Park and Property Committee. The letter was
in reply to a request from the Council that facilities for part time personnel
at the local fire station should be improved. The Clerk to the Joint Committee
stated that permission to proceed with the erection of the new fire station was
expected within the next few months, so it was not proposed to improve
facilities at Grangemouth.
