The dispute over the number of firefighters in the Kennebecasis Valley has taken it's latest turn.


Quispamsis town council has voted in favor of an arbitrator being brought in as they argue with Rothesay about hiring another fire-fighter.


Rothesay points out there needs to be a $100,000 dollar cut in the budget but Mayor Murray Driscoll tells CHSJ News, this doesn't mean further negotiations won't take place.


Currently, there are four fire-fighters working at Station One and Quispamsis is looking for the same number of bodies at the station with-in it's town limits.
