Senator José Peralta on Mayor Bloomberg’s Proposal to Close 20 Firehouses
Jose Peralta
May 10, 2010
“I understand that we must be fiscally prudent during these challenging economic times; however compromising public safety is not an option. Closing firehouses or cutting manning on for trucks is a recipe for disaster and we cannot allow Mayor Bloomberg to treat public safety like a line item in the budget. Our lives and our businesses depend upon a fully funded, fully staffed fire department.”
