Update: Fire on Coldstream property creates safety concerns
Crews from Coldstream and Lavington battled a fully-engulfed structure fire off Matner Lane in Coldstream Monday afternoon
An out-building that was on fire was being used as a storage site for an old vehicle and propane tanks.
“Safety concerns for the crews were paramount due to the volatile contents and overhead power lines as well as a nearby storage fuel tank,” Fire chief Fiona Morgenthaler Code told Vernon Matters.
The fire was also close to a home but aggressive tactics by the crews prevented any damage to that.
