When asked, "Is the Nutter Administration wrong," Union VP Tim McShea answered that the Administration was wrong -- "DEAD WRONG."And, it's not just McShea's opinion. The LA Times and other newspapers have tied deaths directly to random closing of Fire Stations and Companies in other cities. The Nutter Administration says that recent Fire Station closures have NOT impacted response times even though they provide no data. They can't provide it. They have never studied it.
They cite Ladder Companies that arrive at fires saying those arrivals count as a "response" even though Ladders have no Fire Fighting capability. Ladders do not carry nor deliver water to a fire scene. Ladders are for search and rescue. Engine, aka, "pumpers" deliver water to put fires out.
Mayor Nutter's latest closing proposals are based on NO Study, NO Data and NO Facts.
