BACKGROUND AND COMMENT:
As Members of Committee will recall, the Administrator's Report
82-65 in respect of the possible repair of the Orono Fire Hall, was tabled
to the September 27th, 1982 Committee meeting to give a committee of
Council the opportunity to review possible locations for a new fire hall in
Orono.
The committee has reviewed a number of different locations in
Orono and has determined that the lands shown on Schedule "A" on the west
side of Regional Road #17, would be best suited for the purposes of a
fire hall. The lands, owned by H. Best, are currently zoned for
agricultural and residential purposes under the Clarke zoning by-law, and
are available for sale as ascertained through discussions with the Bests.

REPORT TO GENERAL PURPOSE AND ADMINISTRATION COMMITTEE
MEETING Of SEPTEMBER 27TH, 1982
It would be appropriate at this time to determine the
market value of the lands through a real estate appraisal for purposes
of preparing an Offer to Purchase.
It would also be appropriate, for future reference, to
determine the suitability of the lands for septic tank purposes and
servicing costs.
When this information is available, it would be appropriate
for an Offer to Purchase to be prepared by the Town's Solicitor with the
Town bearing all necessary survey and legal costs. It will, of course,
be necessary for a reference plan to be prepared legally describing the
lands on Schedule "A".
Respectfully submitted,,
