In a real world, in the case of larger fires such as this, units from several districts respond. That includes equipment that doesn't get a tarriff.

Do we know, in that city and state, that the FDs are funded by state and federal grants and taxes? Also if not state or taxes, federal funding would not be enough. Im just curious and BTW....
$75 is not a lot, not enough to prop up several city FDepts. It seems more like a shakedown on homeowners since, Im assuming, those that rent a house or apartment don't have to pay. It seems like another property tax
