The Pellatt United Fire Department is hoping to have a more reliable source
of funding soon.
Residents in four unincorporated townships west of Kenora are being asked to
support the creation of a local services board.
Barry Balteson is one of the people behind the proposal and says the goal is
to impose a small levy on each home owner in the area served by the fire
department.
The first of two public meetings on the local services board will take place
tonight at the Pellatt Fire Hall at 7:00.
The actual vote will take place on August 14th.
