π Our Response to the Proposed Fire Station Merger π
At last night`s meeting of the Town Council, the Mayor of Wilton, Cllr Chris Harrison, gave the following statement on the proposed merger of Wilton Fire Station with Salisbury:
"As many of you will be aware, the Chief Fire Officer for the Dorset & Wiltshire Fire and Rescue Service announced on 5th June that his professional advice regarding the proposed station closures has changed. Rather than an outright closure, the new recommendation is that Wilton Fire Station will merge with Salisbury Fire Station for an initial 12-month trial period.
While we note this development, we remain very unclear on the full practical and operational impacts of this proposed merger. It is vital that we understand exactly how a merger will work in reality, particularly how it will affect our local on-call crews and their ability to effectively serve our community.
Therefore, I want to use this opportunity to restate Wilton Town Council`s continued and unwavering support for keeping Wilton Fire Station fully open and operational. We will continue to scrutinise these proposals and advocate strongly on behalf of our town to ensure that our emergency response times remain low and that the safety of our residents is never compromised."
