In the early days of our Village the majority of the neighbors
agreed we should have these devices in our Village.
Yes the issue of liability came up...(of course in our litigious society) and reached an easy agreement on the legal mumbo jumbo. The cost per resident was reasonable....and we implemented.
We have 4 units....affixed to select homes of those who volunteered to have them. We have local responders with beepers....tied to the 911 system...conducted all the required training....certifications....coordination with 911.
A tough issue came up regarding those who did not want to contribute or those who did not want the responsibility legal or other wise....what if one of them is the emergency...of course we all agreed, they are our neighbors, and we will treat them no differently.
