Report claims privatizing EMS will save money, FD claims studies show that privatizing EMS does not save money. What say you?
One thing is certain, we are talking about a lay off of 1,800 approx. Fire Fighters and if I had to guess a cut of around 80mill for EMS operations and another 80mill for payroll from the Fire Depts. budget(Once again this is just a guess looking at services a third the size of Houston's budget)
