Thank you, Don.
Don,
Thank you for your appraisal of this sensitive subject matter. You thought process is clear on the issue. I worked on a Fire Consolidation of seven fire departments in the North Shore of Milwaukee. It was tried 3 times and failed. The forth time was a charm.
As with any major undertaking, the final figures on what it will cost is always a consideration that is different to each resident. The more information one is provided with helps with the final decision. On November 8th, The Sumter County residents of The Villages will be asked to vote.
No, the answer is not easy however the long term effects on coverage, response time, transparency, control and style of Fire Department each resident wants is tied to the vote. Continue to gather information and vote wisely.
