how often do iso rules cause fire stations to be placed in dumb locations?
lets says that a village has 1 fire station - in order to place all
parts of their district within 5 miles of the fire station, the
station has to be placed 1 mile west of the village - therefore, for
the next 50 years, the vast majority of responses are delayed by 3
minutes as the firefighters travel to or from the station - since
there is a major difference between where the station is located, and
where the firefighters live, and where the calls occur
thought occurs to me as I see that cow creek sta 2 in orangeburg sc
has moved since 2012 - it started out in a field - now it is further
out in a field
bottom line - no one should care if a fire station is 5 miles from
their bld - everyone should care HOW LONG THE RESPONSE TIME IS
