Fire Service Review Conducted


Fort Frances' fire department is in the midst of a service review.

Newly appointed Fire Chief Frank Sheppard says the review is not tied to a recent arbitration award for firefighters.

"It was something that needed to be done here and needed to be done over the last few years and never got to it," says Sheppard. "It's part in parcel of a change in the way we do business to meet some some efficiency levels."

Sheppard doesn't anticipate many major changes impacting the public coming out of the review.
