Tantramar council has taken one more step towards replacing the 77-year-old Dorchester Fire Hall.
On Tuesday evening, council approved spending $67,000 on hiring Catalyst Consulting Engineers to coordinate a geotechnical investigation, a net zero analysis, and the hiring of a design consultant for the future building.net zero analysis
Tantramar CAO Jennifer Borne is former CAO of the village of Dorchester, and told CHMA the replacement of the current fire hall has been talked about for years.
“We certainly got our use out of [the current building],” said Borne. “But it’s certainly time for a new facility, well deserving of all of Tantramar, of Dorchester specifically, and certainly the members of Dorchester Fire as well as really all members of Tantramar fire service.”
