Earlier today - the community of McLeese Lake gathering at the future location of the McLeese Lake Fire Hall
This point in time has been six years in the making with the paperwork between the McLeese Lake VFD Society and the McLeese Lake Recreation Commission for a $1 lease over a long term arrangement having been signed back on December 4th
Both Cariboo-North MLA Coralee Oakes and I were both in attendance for the groundbreaking ceremony
It is hoped that construction can commence as soon as the frost comes out of the ground - likely around April 2020. It is anticipated that lock-up stage of the new McLeese Lake Fire Hall can be completed by October or November 2020. I know the McLeese Lake VFD Society is beginning to receive offers of assistance for the McLeese Lake Fire Hall. This should go a long ways to easing the financial strain for this project. As I stated earlier -- my final part in this project will be to ensure BC Assessment Authority applies a statutory taxation exemption for the McLeese Lake Fire Hall and I will ensure this occurs in October 2020 for the 2021 taxation year...
I look forward to the completed McLeese Lake Fire Hall - roughly a year from now
