ndbre; king held for
fire hall construction
Members of the Dayton Rural Fire District Board,
city officials, volunteer firefighters and their families and
friends all watched as a groundbreaking ceremony for a
new fire hall was held last Wednesday, August 10. The
new structure will be on Ferry Street and is the culmina-
tion of several years of planning by members of the de-
partment.
Completion of the building is expected to be about
April of 2006 at a cost of $1.6 million. The land was pur-
chased three years ago and Fire Chief Bret Putman said
plans for the building began on a paper napkin about two
years ago. There was input from nearly all the members of
the department and their ideas and suggestions were then
turned over to an architect who finalized the plans, he
said.
The Dayton Rural Fire District covers approximately
80 square miles and there are two substations, one at
Hopewell and one at Grand Island.
Residents of the city of Dayton pay taxes into the
Dayton Rural Fire District.
The district has one rescue unit, one vehicle to pro-
vide air to fill air tanks on the scene, one engine to fight
brush fires, two tenders and five fire trucks. There are 40
firefighters, many of whom are also qualified as first-aid
providers for emergency accidents and illnesses.

Dayton mayors project
By "Jo" Windish
The 125th celebration committee has undertaken a
project to locate the names and terms of service for eyer
mayor dating back to 1880 when Dayton was incorpo-
rated. During the October 15th concert celebration we
plan to honor their public service. We are also looking for
pictures. If family members could come forward and con-
tact us with that information it would spare us many hours
of time looking for these valuable individuals. Contac
Kelly I-laverkate at 503-864-3214 or Jo Windish
503-864-2168. Thanks for the help!
