Does the fire department invoice for putting out a fire?

It'd be nice to know our taxpayer dollars are enough to not have to,
but like the fire that burned for several hours at a business in Prairieville last week, that was a lot resources expended. If so, I would think insurance would cover it.
Just curious. Who knows?

Fire departments don't fund themselves

Property taxes and calendar fundraisers.

No. There is no invoice. Which is why your votes when our taxes come on ballot are very very appreciated

They didn't charge me when they put out a fire at my house. Truth be told, I was kind of naive about things like that and frazzled from the fire and straight up asked them when I should expect a bill. They just laughed and told me to have a better day and left. Good people.

My father had a large fire at his business ten years ago. Never got a bill. Thank God for firefighters.

You can get billed for false alarms.

Do you remember the firemen scene from Gangs of New York?

Back around 2010, some a-hole in South Fulton, TN, let a guy's house burn to the ground because the resident didn't pay that year. South Fulton is a sister city to Fulton, KY, and is divided by the state line. Fulton is your usual small town shithole but whatever charms and graces it has ends in South Fulton. When I was a junior in HS, we had a football playoff game up there. As our buses are rolling through a residential neighborhood near the school, we saw a sign in a yard that read

Do you know any firemen? I do,and every one of those SOBS are crazy firebugs. You could probably get them to pay you for coming to put out your fire.

During the floods this past summer, I had to threaten to call the sheriff on some guys that were doing donuts in a boat in the high water behind my house. The wake from their stupidity was starting to hit the side of my house. Turns out it was a district fire chief from St. George. The guy was a total idiot.

When do they send their yearly rate?
Posted on 1/30/17 at 1:39 pm to Grassy1
A number of municipalities will invoice for showing up for a false alarm, or a fire such as a brushfire determined to be your fault. But that's usually about the extent. Depends on the fire department.

Seriously how do some of you survive?

Are you seriously asking if the fire department charges for putting out fires? They are funded by tax dollars. The insurance doesn't pay for people to put out fires, they pay out to the people whose property burned down.
Its just like police. Do the police charge you every time they have to direct traffic or some shite?
