Posted March 19, 2014 I do have to wonder, in today's fiscal realities that many cities and municipalities face, just how smart it is to be changing names like this. Besides the cost of new signs, new stationary, new truck markings, and anything else that would have to be redone to reflect the title change; nothing else actually changes. It's the same service that has always been getting provided. Spending a fair amount of tax money to change a title, doesn't seem like the best use of that money, in my opinion. Fire, medical, rescue; has always been a duty of the fire department, even without having a title that specifically spells that out. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
