Official Opening for Kenora's New Fire Hall Today

Its been more than a year in the making, but Kenora's new fire hall on Barsky's Hill will finally be opened up to the public today.

A grand opening ceremony will take place this afternoon at 1:30.

The fire hall cost the city about six million dollars, with one million of that coming from the Northern Ontario Heritage Fund.

The new fire hall will replace the old 100 year old facility on Second Street South.

Later in the afternoon, Kenora City council will hold a special meeting to look at the request for proposals for the heritage fire hall.
