Mayor Templ® announced the object of the meeti~ was for the purpose of having Agent. Howard Walker to give the necessary information concerning the renewing of fire policy-on the Johnson Fire house; Mr. Walker remarked that a month ago he forward a communication to the Board of Trustees explaining the full particulars on the renewal of the fire policy on the Johnson Fire House for some reason or other the mem- bers did not understand the details concerning the fire policy, Mr. Walker as serted that the cost of labor and building materials ie rather high and he tried to explain, that the increase of the valuation of the building was necessary as this particular building could not be constructed for the sum of $ I3,OO0. O0 at this time and in case of a fire under the SO Per 0ent co-insurance policy the vi~llage would receive a small s~ for the toss to replace this building on account of building materi~ and labor being exceeding high that is why he suggested thatif eke co insurance clause is to be used, the policy must be increased to an amount which is equal to SO per cent of the present depreciated value of the building or a flat rate must be used without the co-insurance clause. Naturally when $26,000 may be secured for $ I23.50 you would nott~ use the flat rate basis.
