I don’t know where you’re located but in San Diego we run a very lean (too lean, some fear) fire dept. We’re often criticized as being “too cheap” because we refuse to authorize tax increases at the ballot box.
We’re in Sierra Madre, about 1/2 mile from the National Forest up here near Pasadena. SM has a VOLUNTEER fire department. We actually take care of our own yards without even being warned. I don’t know, something about forest fires that makes me think twice about overgrown bushes and weeds. Most of us are very careful.
