Well, to say I am disappointed would be wrong--at the end of the day if people are being cared for and their able to get the help they need. Where I feel somewhat upset is how can on one hand the City or Fire department give up seeking legal remedy, when a report comes saying that on average it takes four minutes before the tones are units are dispatched, in the Rural Fire Districts, which means that the response time in retrospect is probably near over ten minutes where this one or two person staffing. This response time being even longer for all volunteer departments, not to infer they have substandard ability;
Clements a prime example of a department with State of the Art technology and resources available to be committed, contingent upon timely notification, and then available response from volunteers, Farmington added a New apparatus to their Station 4-1. I could go on, but most of the times, responses in the County is already expected to be at a higher level, but putting a choke hold on the call and not giving it up for whatever reason is a furtherance in in backwards thinking and there is not reason we cannot fix the issue. Oh, I am sorry wait a min. , we cant fix it, because we have sold out, and wasted four million dollars, and Measure H, so important to both the City, and Fire Department, either side being a possible looser, where it will be decisive in the shift and policy of City and Department.
Conveniently a day after another story, basically slapping us in the face, and in my view, saying to all of us that supported the fire department and City throughout this feud, that I was duped--now I am big L, stamped right on my forehead.
It is still the most insane thing I have heard, the one thing that City could say is that before the break up and the dictatorship of the EMS Agency campaign, we at least had a semi flawed, but well tested system in place that worked.
There was a point, before Lifecom was built and the back room underhanded dealings went on, that the City of Stockton dispatched every fire agency in the County, from South County ECD, Lodi, and all the rural fire districts in the County, and to put the cherry on top--we dispatched all the Ambulances to.
There has never been a point and time--where the City and County were at the design and concept of interoperability. While it can be argued that interoperability falls short of distinction in this case, I respond and say look at the definition as to what the meaning is a far applying it to EMS, and it will be come clear to those who have their thinking caps on that we have just took an eight year regression backwards, instead of being the pioneers.
It seems to me that once we get one thing that is half way commendable or worth standing up against, the City, and Fire Department, with the Records help, do not fail to make us feel extra special! The Record delightfully reports this story, and then breaks the drama as coming to a close, where once their was fireworks, now there is tacit, flaccid, shrugging your shoulders, this could only happen in this City.
We have lost 4,000,000, million dollars on something that apparently at the end of the day both sides jumped shipped, where they should have put their own politics, aside, and stop worrying about Next Months Measure H. This being a huge victory for the City, to be given whole free reign to cut funds where they should not be cut, so that we can truly fund and subsidize a hockey team, events center, and a Marina.
It seems that Fire Department has been so hardened by all the fighting over the years, that they have learned how to play dirty and think just like the failures at City hall. They can be ghetto, be Heroes, Super Men, and then go undercover, and do us all. Back down to victim, and big picture of wasted money, and now they maybe hero's, but they lose in their victim, ballot they have played over the years, and they get an Oscar for best performance in duping the Citizens, and showing us just how stupid and dumb we all our.
