That makes no sense at all.

Why not?

Gives them "two" ladder companies.  The way the dispatch is built for a 3-1, it ensures a Ladder or Tender on all calls in Daisy.

Unless both engines are on other calls, then no ladder. If you're going to have a ladder, it should be independently staffed.

If both companies are on other calls, that is what the automatic aid system is for. I agree, should be independent companies but when it comes down to budget, this actually works.  Same as Buckeye or Avondale staffing a ladder and engine with same manpower.
