The 70 Mile House VFD will hold a public meeting on Feb. 28 to discuss the ongoing water supply problem.

They need a good, reliable, and adequate supply of water for firefighting. The VFD wants to hear from residents who have ideas to solve the problem.

Another decision must be made regarding the fire hall itself. Currently, the VFD cannot obtain newer vehicles as they will not go through the existing door, and the doors cannot be enlarged. This will also be discussed at the meeting. The meeting will be held at the fire hall on Willow Drive at 10 a.m.
