Reduced fire rates are in store for most of the original townsjje, from Dobson street to Pratt street, west of main street, and from Hortt street to Pratt street, east of main street, with the new zone 1 classification and the remainder of the town classified zone 2. According to Fire Chief Lowell Ford this will reduce about one-hal- f the premiums paid by property owners in zone 1, on their fire insurance policies. Property owners in zone 2 should contact their insurance agents to find if they are eligible for any lowering of rates, too. The installation of several more fire hydrants will also improve the rating in those areas not now in zone 1, but this problem will have to be worked out with the Fredonia Water Conservation District, which supplies the town with water, Chief Ford stated. Those helDing with the various phases of this project incude, P. A. T. Jensen, past Fire Chief, Gdne Mitchell, asst. Chief and to the Town Council, and Don Ellison, secretary. Installation of an effective a larm system has also improved the efficiency of the firemen,. Chief Ford said. Kanab Weekly Community Calendar Jan. 18, Fire Meeting. Jan. 19, Jaycees Meeting.
