GENERAL CONDITIONS Waterworksâ€"Source of supply, a pond containing ample storage pumps drawing from a filtered water res- ervoir supply the village. Filter capacity should be increased or addi- tional storage of filtered water pro- vided. An electrically driven pump for domestic purposes normally sup- plies the village in conjunction with an elevated tank; one pump for fire service, operated by gasoline engine, not an approved form of power. In- stallation of gasoline engine and pump not altogether in accordance with Standard regulations. Engineer attendance at the pump house not continuous. Distribution system comâ€" posed principally of 6â€"in., 8â€"in. or 10 inch mains; dead ends fairly numer- ous. Hydrant spacing fairly good. Pressures are good. Fire Departmentâ€"Slightly under strength, entirely volunteer. Brigade has been reorganized; all members now employed in the village. Fairly well equipped with customary appar- atus, but the motor combination truck recently addedI the principle appli- ance, is of low power and is equipped with a pump of rather small capacity. Arrangements required for the truck to be followed up by other apapratus when responding to an alarm. Alarm Systemâ€"Alarms are sound- ed manually on a bell at the public school about 100 yards from the fire hall. Telephone alarms retransmittâ€" ed by the operator at the public exâ€" change to the Chief of the Fire De- partment and to two residents of the village near the school by whom the general alarm bell may. be sounded. A___AA. The last report. from the Canadian Fire Underwriter’s Association makes the following comments and sugges- tions regarding the condition in the Village of Richmond Hill. ' By-lnwsâ€"Require buildings érect- ed within the fire limits to be solid brick, stone or concrete construction and roofs to be covered with incom- bustible material; no wood shingles allowed. Storage of inflammables and explosives not regulated by by- ANNUAL REPORT ON LOCAL FIRE PROTECTION Conflagration Hazard â€" Although there is a fairly large propo tion of frame or veneered construc ion in the business section and wood shing- les on roofs are somewhat noticeable, the hazard does not appear to be let all pronounced as there is no conges- tion anywhere and frame outbuild- ings in block interiors are not num- erous. Buildings in residential sec- tion are well spread out and open spaces are numerous. .1 :, .___-1.-..... law. urfii‘iéadeâ€"The éffength is unchang- ed, 19 including the chief, but the brigade_ha§ bgqp reorganized under 77L, ,_._ L“; ul. Abuuy u»... _ a, a new chief. All are volunteers, but, Whereas formerly only about 12 mem- bers were employed in the village," all are now employed locally. ‘None sleep in the fire hall at night. The chief lives about three-quarters of a mile from the fire hall and owns an automobile and has a telephone in his dwelling; about 13 other members of the brigade have~telephones in their r'wellimrs. 5 members live Within 50 yards of the fire hall and 5 are employed by the chief at his place of business. Practices are said to be -‘Mld about every 2 weeks throughout . LA‘n year. Firemen are paid for 8 "malice: and 4 meetings annually, at the rate of $1 per practice and 50c. oer meeting. No further remunera- .tion is given for attendance at fires. General Alarmâ€"Alarms are sound- ed as formerly on a bell at the pub- lic school about 100 yards south of the fire hall. Alarms may also be ' telephoned to the public exchange and are retransmitted by the operator to the chief of the Fire Department and to a dwelling or garage near the Ischool, where it is said someone is always available to ring the general alarm bell. lented their Easte ito sickness in th¢ ldent, Mrs. Hunter. tend but the vice-p iis Scott ably conc ~Rev.

General Remarks and Deficiencies Storage of inflammables and ex- plosivesâ€"Not regulated by by-law. Storage of coal oil, petroleum, etc., should be limited to 5 barrels, of crude oil, gasoline, etc., to 5 gallons, and of gunpowder to 25 pounds. Pump Houseâ€"Engineer attendance is not continuous.

Intern- al protection for the building should be provided in the form of a 2% gal- lon firefoam extinguisher and 3 pails of sand. 0 .1, u; manu- Fire Hallâ€"The situation of the fire hall is convenient but the building is of brick-veneered construction comprising also a grocery store and court room, and is of unsuitable de-‘ sign for a fire hall. The enclosure in which hose is dried is only half Stan- dard height. A fire hall should preferably be 'of brick, stone or con- crete construction and detached, and should have sleeping auomodatlon for men and a hose drying tower of sufiicient height to give 55 feet be- low the suspenders. Brigadeâ€"Consists of 19 volunteers. It would be advisable to increase the strength of the brigade to 20 at least and to make arrangements for 2 or Jsmess. Prac 31d about eve] :0 your.
