We don't have a fire tax in our Twp and so we don't get any tax money directly from are Twp. Now we do apply for grants and have gotten a few. We were able to get a FEMA grant a few years ago for are 2008 smeal pumper but we still had to pay 20%. Most of the money that we use we get though fund raising . We have events all year long, we have cash bash events gun tickets we do chicken BBQ stake diners and many others. We also send out donation letters once a year to all property owns in the Twp.
We also have the fireman's club its a private bar like a VFW that provides a lot of are funding.
You may not realize it, but you just announced on a very public forum that your fire department applies for and receives federal grant money. You also announced that your department knowingly and willingly violated federal law by removing emissions equipment for a vehicle. I personally don't care, but there are "watchdogs" everywhere operating under the guise of "government accountability" who would love to get ahold of stuff like this. If I were you I'd be careful about giving any more details about your department. Glad your truck is running well, and it's pathetic that Ford couldn't make it run right for you.
