The new class rate 6, down from a previous 9, results from a study conducted last summer by the rating bureau. Insurance class rates, upon which fire insurance pre miums are charged by insur ance agencies, are based upon an area's fire fighting capabi lities. These include equip ment, amount of water and pressure available, distribu tion of fire hydrants in relation to buildings, fire department organization and training. Several attempts have been made by the fire department and the city for a reduction in insurance rating since the initial water system was installed in 1969. The Irrigon Rural Fire Dept. operates under a tax supported district. It was not until a new pumper truck was purchased by the fire district and other equipment improvements made that a rating evaluation could be , re-assessed. . Also contributing to the sucessful re-evaluation were improve ments made by the city under a $116,000 grant from the Economic Development Ad ministration in 1976. These included doubling the water storage capacity, adding new and larger pumping equip ment, drilling a shallow well with 800 gallon per minute capacity and adding several more fire hydrants. No home in Irrigon is now farther than 1,000 feet from a fire hydrant and most are within 500 feet. The class drop is expected to bring a savings of around 50 per cent to home owners on fire insurance policies accord ing to Mayor Vernon Stewart. A town hall type meeting coupled with a potluck dinner drew around 50 interested people Friday evening. It was the third such meeting since January and a number of subjects were discussed. In formation on several current city projects was also presen ted. The walls of the school cafetorium were decorated with brightly colored copies of the adopted town meeting seal, colored by the children of the A.C. Houghton School. A program of entertain ment, arranged by the Town Hall committee headed by Mrs. Ted Wilson was high lighted with a lively clown dance skit by girls from the Riverside High School cheer leaders group. The same act by this group resulted in trophy awards both at the District and the State Basket ball tournaments, in Pendle ton in February and March. Group singing followed, with participants singing the adopted Town Hall songs to the tune of "Home on the Range" anil "Your are My Sunshine". A Junior Kazoo band performed, accom panied by Mrs. Ernest Jorgen sen on the accordian. Although unofficial in na ture, the meeting still offered areas of citizen involvement close to official sources. City Administrator, Jack Baisden acted as informant and fielded questions about items on the agenda. 1
