Further to the news of the recommendations being made last week in relation to the modernisation of the Fire Service on the Isle of Wight, a delegated decision notice has now been released.
Cllr Barry Abraham has made the decision to go with Option One as recommended, that Shanklin Fire Station remain open with a nucleus crewing system.
The news means that Shanklin Fire Station will remain open, but will result in fourteen redundancies across the Fire Service of retained day staff.
