Ironwood Township Firefighter Update
Chief Jamie Peite appeared before the Trustees Monday requesting a set of gear for the Township’s newest firefighter. He is quite tall and consequently the gear could not be found locally. Chief Peite had received two bids and recommended the lower bid of $1378. The Board unanimously approved the bid as presented.

Firefighter Chuck Williams gave a report on the Township Fire Department. Chuck is the Secretary-Treasurer of the Township Volunteers.

Chuck advises that there are currently 27 active firefighters in service; and all. All but two are certified as of this date. Since June 1st, the Department has answered 4 calls, one of which was a mutual aid call to the City of Ironwood.

Williams told the Trustees that on Labor Day weekend the Township and City firefighters jointly collected over $1600 for Muscular Dystrophy.
