Back in 2004 this mocked up Reliant Robin took pride of place in the Hayle Illuminated Carnival, a satirical 'dig' at the authorities who had resisted siting a Fire Station in Hayle since they closed the temporary one at the end of World War 2!!
Today Cornwall Council's Scrutiny Committee unanimously approved proposals for new Fire Stations in the West of Cornwall with a new Hub to replace Camborne and Redruth Fire Stations, AND a Community Fire Station at Hayle sited in Commercial Road Car Park, opposite the Cornish Arms pub!
It will include facilities for joint use by Ambulance and local Police if they decide to come on board.
A lot of work has gone into this over YEARS by successive councils and concerned members of the Hayle Community, and now Hayle's Cornwall Councillors John Coombe and John Pollard have been able to play a part in bringing this about at last.
Now lets see how soon this can be built!!!
(...and will someone please tell Geoffrey Holman!!!)
