Couldn't agree more we have a Top Notch Fire Department with stations spread evenly throughout TV. The Ambulances belong in these Stations & in The Villages. Not waiting on a rig responding from God knows where. Much quicker response and much quicker transports. I have witnessed the delay first hand for my own Granddaughter. I served for 42 years in an FD on Long Island before moving here and went thru the same problems with delayed response from Community Ambulance. We wound up adding our own Ambulances in each of our 3 Stations, Problem solved. Listen to what the FD wants period! They're well trained and provide outstanding service.

VDPS should transport!
To non-polititians the answer is pretty obvious. Keep the VDPS system intact and add to their responsibilities the transportation of patients. Also, the work should begin now to create an Independent Special Fire Control District to encompass all of The Villages territory per Florida Statute 191.
