According to a By NATALIE JOHNSON na~cdie@rnasoncounty.com Fire crews from Central Mason Fire and EMS moved into the renovated Shelton fire department building more than a year ago. However, the building hasn't re- ceived permanent signage yet. The City of Shelton Commission agreed Monday to accept a recommen- dation from the Shelton Historic Pres- ervation Commission that future sig- nage on the building should say "Shel- ton Fire Hall." "We saved a building of historical significance that's our fire station, which used to be our city hall," city Administrator Dave O'Leary said. "It arguably should have some signage." Originally, the historic preserva- tion commission recommended that the sign read, "Shelton City Hall," since the building was once the city hall. Howev- er, city and fire district staff members were concerned that the sign would be confusing. O'Leary said city staff met with the historic preservation commission and came up with a compromise. Historic commission chairman Tracy Moore asked that the city commission to consider a historic marker labeling fi accidental fire. i :::: ':,*:: Central Mason re#ponded to another fire on Saturday at the Birch Street Apart- ments at 123 W.
