and as a department, statewide we do 350,000 call a year, not just one part of it, but the cuts are department wide. the counties could not do what we do as economically as we do it, could you imagine a county fire department trying to handle a major wild fire in the ways we do? I know you dont know all the details on it, but its not possible for them. they dont have the resources, communications or finances to handle it. and if they tried to do it financially, the tax rates here would be 1000 times worse then they are now
I realize I cant save everyone and be the hereo ever time, but there are things that can be done that go a long way with just a little support
