Fire Department's Hartford Fire Station
Major Renovation to Augusta (ME) Fire Department’s Hartford Fire Station The city of Augusta, Maine, had WBRC Architects Engineers and Mitchell Architects design an addition and perform a major renovation of its historic Hartford Fire Station. (Photos courtesy of Mitchell Associates Architects.) By Alan M. Petrillo The Hartford Fire Station was Augusta, Maine’s oldest of five fire stations, being built on a hilltop overlooking the downtown in the early part of the 20th century when firefighters were still using horse-drawn water pumps. But, the station’s infrastructure was failing under the weight of modern fire engines that barely fit through the apparatus bay doors. In 2016, city voters approved $6 million to renovate and add onto the station to bring it up to modern standards. “We did a study that determined the station was in the right location for proper coverage,” says Roger Audette, Augusta Fire Department’s chief. “So, the decision was made to renovate the Hartford station and increase its footprint with an addition. The biggest need we had was for two large truck bays to hold our newer apparatus. A previous ladder tower had to be moved to another station because of the inadequate floor at the Hartford station.” The city hired WBRC Architects Engineers and Mitchell Associates Architects to design a 11,325-square-foot addition, as well as to perform a major renovation of the original 8,800-square- foot Classical Revival style structure. Robert Mitchell, principal architect at Mitchell Associates Architects, says, “The new two-story expansion provides a six-vehicle, drive-through apparatus bay with a tail-pipe exhaust system, decontamination area, and rigorous hot zone/cold zone separation. -

Citing the principal media for child-targeted advertising, (comic books, youth magazines, school displays and radio and television), the speaker exposed the present-day practices in the marketing of toys, pills and edible products. The relationship between "misleading, often seductive advertising" and over-the-counter drugs and non-nutritional foodswas explored. Mr. Choate was_critical of previous attempts at advertising reform and points out several areas where, he said, the advertisers failed to follow through with previous pledges assuringmore straightforward ads. In conclusion, he called for more regulation, particularly by the FTC, Federal Drug Administration, and Federal Communications Commission, to tightly restrain the country's merchants from "coveting our children's purses." A listing of the fifth largest food companies and their advertising agencies is provided. (MC) El EVEIITH COZ,114ADD',.rENT: THOU SHALT NOT COVET AY CHILD'S l'Ultrri, U S DEPARTMENT OF HEALTH. -

Stiegert and Vardges Hovhannisyan 1. INTRODUCTION: FOOD RETAILING: 1850-1990 Before the introduction of supermarkets, fast food outlets, supercenters, and hypermarts, various other food retailing formats operated successfully in the US. During the latter half of the 19th century, the chain store began its rise to dominance as grocery retailing format. The chain grocery store began in 1859 when George Huntington Hartford and George Gilman founded The Great American Tea Company, which later came to be named The Great Atlantic & Pacific Tea Company (Adelman, 1959). The typical chain store was 45 to 55 square meters, containing a relatively limited assortment of goods. -

DESCRIPTORS Employee Responsibility; Employer Employee Relationship; *Employment Practices; *Food Stores; Organizational Climate; *Participative Decision Making; *Quality of Working Life; *Reduction in Force IDENTIFIERS *Employee Ownership; *Pennsylvania (Philadelphia) ABSTRACT A longitudinal study compared the effectiveness of worker buyouts and quality of work life programs (QWL) in reversing the shutdown of supermarkets in Philadelpnia. Working conditions, worker attitudes, and economic outcomes at a group of employee-owned stores and a group that had adopted QWL strategies were compared at three points in time (summer 1982, summer 1983, and fall 1984). Overall, the worker buyouts were successful at saving some lobs. The worker-owned stores, which had been among the poorest-performing stores originally, had significantly lower unit labor costs in 1983 than either the QWL or non-QWL stores examined, despite the fact that they employed a larger proportion of full-time, highly paid workers. Productivity was also significantly higher at the employee-owned stores. In those stores where QWL had been fully implemented, workers acquired some involvement in decisions through departmental, store, and regional meetings, but their involvement was constrained and limited to short-term decisions. -
