He informed everyone else there would be a <br />workshop to give them an opportunity to be heard.) <br /> <br /> John Williams <br />, 1535 Smugglers Cove, thought this is a political power issue <br />and the Board should keep it dissolved for a few more years by keeping two unions. <br /> The Chairman felt Mr. Williams was being naive. <br /> <br />THE CHAIRMAN CALLED THE QUESTION and the <br />Motion passed unanimously. (The Board directed staff <br />to investigate consolidating the Fire and Emergency <br />Services Divisions with the goal of achieving a better <br />level of service, set calendar target dates and to report <br />back to the Board at the first meeting in January 2005. <br /> <br />NOVEMBER 16, 2004 28 <br /> <br />
