Dear residents and property-owners of Bralorne, Gun Lake and Seton,

Please earmark the weekend of June 11 and 12.

The SLRD will be hosting several community meetings, in Seton and Gold Bridge, to provide updates about the Fire Services Review.

The Fire Services Review was finalized in 2013, and we will update you on the work done to begin implementing some of the recommendations made in the Review.

The SLRD’s Emergency Manager will outline various options for the potential restructuring of each community’s volunteer fire departments and protective services, based on the recommendations received in the Fire Services Review.

If you’re unable to attend, or don’t plan on being in the region on that weekend, we will record the meetings, and post the presentation and recording to our website, so you can fill out the survey and provide your feedback on your preferred approach moving forward.

This is an important topic for all of our communities and we hope you will be able to attend, and provide your input on the future of your local fire service.

More background information about the Fire Services Review meeting can be found here The entire report (which reviewed the Fire Services throughout the entire SLRD region, from Britannia Beach to Gun Lake) is also available on our website
