The collapse could damage the station sufficiently to render it inoperable as well as damage the Fire Department's dispatch radio antenna, which is mounted on the station roof. Enclosed is a bill for an ordinance appropriating $96,000 received from FEMA. If there are any questions, please do not hesitate to call the Department of Public Works. :~1-~~~ Harry A.
