On September 10th a group of Local 80 firefighters were in attendance at City Hall to show their support for His Worship Mayor Don Atchison.  Mayor Atchison spoke to a group of supporters and the media about his intentions to run for re-election.

Local 80 is pleased with the working relationship with council and their continued support of our issues, therefore an executive motion was made and passed by the members to support the Mayor and all encumbent members of council.

All members of Local 80 regularily contribute to FIREPAC, which is an international fund through the IAFF that is used for political action in the United States and Canada.  Local 80 was able to get some money through FIREPAC to purchase signs and shirts.

The civic election is on October 28th.
