Plans for new land ambulence base coming together

Still no firm decision from the Kenora District Services Board when construction on
a new land ambulence base in Kenora will begin.

The city has given some land beside the new fire hall on Barsky's Hill to the Services
board to build the new facility.

Louis Roussin is the new council representitive on the board and says they still haven't
decided whether to begin construction this year, or next year.

He says the estimated cost of the project is about 2.8 million dollars.

Roussin says the District Services board may go ahead with the design portion of
the project this year, and wait til 2012 to begin construction.
