THE DEMISE OF YOUR SAFETY

 

Look what your Port Orange City Council has done for you:

 

  • Eliminated immediate fire protection in the heart of the city (Dunlawton and Clyde Morris area approximately SEVEN SQUARE MILES)
  • Eliminated the following community programs:

Flu Shots, Infant/Children Safety Seat Installation, Indigent Elderly Follow-Up Care, Child/Community Education and Safety Program.

  • Drastically reduced the number of Paramedics that respond to emergencies by 39%.
  • Drastically reduced staffing levels by 24% to well below the national safety standard, which further jeopardizes public and firefighter safety.
  • The Port Orange Professional Firefighters have offered approximately $600,000.00/year in savings to help reduce the budgetary burden without reducing services.  Firefighters also offered to contribute 10.1% of their salaries and significantly cut their benefits to help reduce pension costs

However, city council has turned down every offer.   Port Orange City Council wants to impose a plan that will increase your tax burden by $100,000.00 a year.  

 

Let your voice be heard by contacting your elected representative:
