Fire chief resigns
from p. l
town's fire department and
confusion over the criticism
fire department officials had
received. It was reported that
attendance at fire meetings,
training of fire department
members and maintenance of
department equipment affect
the town's fire rating which
directly affects the cost of fire
insurance for buildings within
the

lower
favorable
town gets, the council said. It
was estimated by a local
insurance agent that a home
owner buying in a town with a
seven rating would pay $20
$25 more per year for fire
insurance on a $40,000 home
than in a town with a rating of
five.
Council members decided to
solicit applications for fire
chief. Applicants will be re
viewed at the December city
council meeting. Those inte
rested in applying for the
position of fire chief should
contact Mayor Ed Baker or
one of the council members by
the December 12 city council
meeting.
The fire chief is responsible
for the overall administration
of the department. This in
cludes recruitment and train

per month to help defray his
expenses in administering the
department.
The council requests that all
citizens of Lexington who have
comments to make about the
fire department attend the
December 12 meeting.

each seEment the national
anthem as the colors came in
and period songs for each war
period, service songs as each
branch of the service was
mentioned and "God Bless

An especially touching part
of the day's ceremony was the
reading of the roll of honor
containing the names of coun
ty service men w ho gave their
lives in the two world wars
and in Korea. The names Mrs.
Steagall read were taken from
the plaque displayed at the
county courthouse. It does not
