Sooke Fire Rescue Service moved one step closer to having another fire station within its jurisdiction as the Silver Spray Fire Hall site was officially turned over to the District of Sooke. This site is located on the first lot in Silver Spray at 6989 East Sooke Road. (it is the small lot loacted along the dotted line nearest Pike Road) Eventual plans call for a small one or two bay fire station. It is anticipated that a small mini pumper will likely be the first apparatus assigned here, however depending on the size of future developments on these properties, a larger fire apparatus may be required. The next step is to determine if sufficient area residents are interested in becoming volunteer members of the department and are willing to look after the needs of this area.
