RENTAL OF SITE
Free Ambulance Building REPLY TO CRITICISM Replying to the Mayor’s criticism in connection with the Free Ambulance, Mr. D. J. McGowan said: “It is quite true the council, helped us in the early days, and it Is also true that we have been granted a long lease of the land at £52 per year rental, on which our new station is now being built. “Mr. Hislop did not, however, point out that the land had been previously leased to one of the rowing clubs at a rental of £l2 per year. This rental, I understand, is many years in arrears, so that whatever the land may be valued at it is certain that the City Council will obtain, under the ambulance lease, over four times the previous annual rental.”
