Editor,
This letter is in response to the letter from Mr. Clapp and Mr. Nelson.
How relieved we are to see great support for the rural fire station at Big Arm. Though there have been many sordid statements made about the way our city and rural fire fighting efforts work, this much is clear: some that have publically opposed the rural station at Big Arm now have written letters in support of it. This is praiseworthy.
It's difficult to stand for what is right and what is true. Far from being part of a single-minded club, we have researched historical records in order to be able to look forward and advocate the interests of all of you in our 200-mile rural fire district. Public records support our statements, while the statements of others have been inaccurate at times.
Please do not hesitate to take a look at board meeting minutes or other letters yourself - we have copies available if you'd like to obtain them from us by way of email or what have you.
This brings us to the crux of the issue you face. When electing rural fire board members you may vote for us and be assured of a healthy diversity in representing your rural concerns.
The choice is yours.
