We don't have any in our area. I'm told it was discussed some time before I bought here but with the great response times of the VPSD it was determined to be a lot of money, training, and coordination for possibly no return.
There has been more than one life saved by these devices in the Villages. So are you saying $100 isn’t worth a life except maybe unless it yours. Pretty shorted sighted for so little money. I am sure if they go ahead with this and you need it they won’t ask if you contributed or not.
