The Caroling and Christmas Tree Lighting Ceremony happened last night in Cornell. Year after year, Cornellians gather around the big Christmas Tree in the Cornell Mews park to celebrate the beginning of the Holiday Season. Our Ward 5 councilor, John Webster, opened the ceremony. Johnathan Lee, tenor, led us in singing our favourite Christmas carols, and then we enjoyed the treats and the hot chocolate courtesy of the Cornell Rate Payers Association.     Even Cornelius the Lion showed up.   A magical night that made me reminisce about the Christmas Joy I felt as a child.   I hope this Christmas will bring this magic to the child in you!     12/06/2009

Due to the 300 day build cycle, there is an immediate requirement to move forward with the purchase of a pumper apparatus for the Cathedral station.  Instead of purchasing an aerial apparatus, the recommendation is to purchase the second pumper apparatus and fund it from project # 7757 at a maximum of $650,000 and the remaining funds be returned to the original funding source.   Although the Cornell station pumper appar... 06/22/2009
