New York Fire Patrol

4 posts in this topic

Just some food for thought but the there is a movement to reinstate the New York Fire Patrol. The bill passed in the State Senate and is awaiting approval in the State Assembly. The bill is only amending the non-profit law too allow Patrols, nothing fiscal. I think you guys should check it out and give them some support. Here's some info;

(Informational video about the Fire Patrol, dated, but shows what they do)

Now remember, after a building is on fire there can be up to 3 truck companies doing salvage work, these guys did it all for them, thats 3 truck companies back in service that can respond to fires.

As we kind of discussed in the other thread, they were closed down because the Insurance Companies didn't want to pay for them, despite them preventing millions of dollars in losses, therefore saving the insurance companies millions from having to pay out claims.
