Malahide buys site for new fire station

Malahide councillors, after a secret session Thursday, Feb. 2, authorized purchasing a three-acre parcel of land on Imperial Road south of John Wise Line to be the home of a new combined fire station.

The township will pay Ann DeRyk $20,000 an acre for the land.

The new station will merge the volunteer forces from Malahide’s current, and ageing, fire halls in Summers Corners and south of Mount Salem.
