No wonder our annual fire assessment has to increase. I do not begrudge the firefighters a fair wage, but no houses are 10 stories tall, only businesses.

That's a good reason for a public safety impact fee on commercial property.
The Brownwood hotel paid an impact fee when it was built wonder how tall the hospital will be?
