CONWAY — About 15 people attended the North Conway Fire Precinct meeting held in the apparatus bay of the new $6.7 million North Conway Fire Station Saturday afternoon in a straightforward session that lasted an hour and 10 minutes, with only one amendment made to the 17 articles passed.
The lone amendment was made by North Conway Deputy Fire Chief/precinct treasurer Tim Anderson to increase by $44,514 Article 12, originally funded at $555,486, concerning a replacement for the North Conway Fire Department’s Rescue 1 vehicle, to $600,000, to be funded from the Fire Equipment Capital Reserve and no amount from taxation.
