GREGG CHAMBERLAIN gregg.chamberlain@eap.on.ca UCPR FIRE DISPATCH ALMOST READY Prescott-Russell (UCPR) takes over in the fall. The UCPR regional fire dispatch system has been in development for a couple of years now, since Hawkesbury agreed to turn over responsibility for the service to the counties. The UCPR is replacing the old analog system with a modern digital system, set up by the consultant firm BearCom. The change in the system will not affect how residents call for help using 911. The new system is used to relay emergency calls to local fire stations, tell them where a fire situation is, and keep fire crews in touch with their base station. The new regional dispatch service for Prescott-Russell municipal fire depart- ments becomes active in September. “A flick of the switch and they go live with the new equipment,” said United Coun- ties of Prescott-Russell Chief Administrator Stéphane Parisien during an update on the situation at the March 27 counties council session. Hawkesbury will continue to provide fire dispatch service this spring and sum- mer, he explained, until the new system operated through the United Counties of

There are more names on the Sunshine List from English school districts in Eastern Ontario, of staff who earn more than $100,000 a year. The provincial government’s 2018 Sunshine List was released at the end of March. The annual report lists all public sector employees who earn $100,000 or more, and includes those with both the provincial and municipal governments, along with school districts, hospitals and other public sector agencies. The 2018 Sunshine List includes entries from both the Upper Canada District School Board (UCDSB) and the Catholic District School Board of Eastern Ontario (CSDBEO), which main- tain English-language schools in the Glengarry-Prescott-Russell riding.
