Deputy Mayor Stephen Chase says even with a budget cut hitting the fire department, we will still meet national fire safety standards.
The Fire Fighters Association says the loss of a truck and up to 24 staff will put Saint Johners at risk.
But Chase tells CHSJ News there is nothing to worry about because the same amount of trucks and fire fighters will still respond to a fire call and our service will still be superior to that of our neighbouring communities.

He says the funding reduction to the fire department will remain the same no matter what form the final budget takes.
