The mayor of Marystown says a meeting is planned this coming Tuesday to find a suitable solution to space problems at the Marystown Fire Hall.

The Burin Peninsula Ground Search and Rescue took to Facebook this week to express its “profound concern” following comments suggesting that they might have to vacate their current space in the fire hall.

Mayor Gerry Brenton admits that space is a concern as the fire department expands to address wildfire needs, but he emphasizes, no one will be asked to leave until a solution is found that meets the needs of all involved.

“I’ll be very, very clear,” says Brenton, “the Ground Search and Rescue Team will not be asked to relocate…until the council, the fire department, and the ground search and rescue can sit down, have some meetings, (and) find some suitable locations.”

He says the final objective will be to ensure that everyone is happy with the situation.

That meeting is scheduled for this coming Tuesday.
