Members of the Fall River City Council who had asked for funding to construct a building large enough to hold street sweepers and other large vehicles and equipment were stunned to learn last night in a Finance Committee session that such a building did exsist, having been purchased some six years ago, and remaining in its original packaging, ready to assemble. 

The disclosure was made by Fall River City Administrator Seth Thomas Aitkin, who told council members that once a collection of discarded fire trucks and other muniicpal vehicles was sold for scrap, there would be enough room to build the large storage facility later this summer.
