(EMAILWIRE.COM, March 10, 2009 ) NO FIRE / EMERGENCY RESPONSE plan for Heritage Woods Middle School in Anmore, BC
Anmore, BC, Canada, March 10, 2009 RefuseToDoNothing.com has just released the following blog post regarding NO FIRE / EMERGENCY RESPONSE plan for Heritage Woods Middle School in Anmore:
As posted Posted on | March 5, 2009 | Public safety: NOT an important factor to consider when choosing a site location to build a new Middle School to send our children.
To date, NO response has been received from the Village of Anmore regarding ANY FIRE / EMERGENCY RESPONSE plan for the proposed Heritage Woods Middle School in Anmore.
Just to be CRYSTAL CLEARÂ…. This post is not about the our local Fire Fighters! ItÂ’s about the Village of Anmore exploring the requirements for Fire protection and emergency response if the proposed Heritage Woods Middle School is built within the Village. We support and respect the men and women who serve the public as fire fighters and have friends on the department.
* Anmore has a volunteer fire department.
RESPONSE TIME & LEVEL OF SERVICE:
* If an alarm is pulled and itÂ’s a 2 alarm fire, where are the two fire trucks going to come from?
* How long will it take to get them up the hill and down the smaller roads?
* What if they encounter another car on the road, will they be able to get by?
* Will the Village of Anmore be the only jurisdiction to pay this cost?
* Does the Village of Anmore have the money to do this?
* Will “WE” Anmore require a full time Fire Department vs volunteer?
* Will Port Moody or Coquitlam Fire & Rescue provide better protection for our kids?
* Many unanswered questions for me to a topic that seems so critical.
* Am I way off with my concern for safety? Are you confident and satisfied?
If not why not ASK?
Maybe for many who have commented so far, public safety isnÂ’t an important factor to consider when choosing a School site location to build a new Middle School to send our children?

About RefuseToDoNothing.com
This blog has been set up out of my shear frustration with the status quo, with people of influence with misguided intentions, and individuals who feel they canÂ’t fight the system.
Many friends, neighbors, and people within our local and global communities feel that it doesnÂ’t matter, that they will take their lumps.
It is my sincere hope that through the small efforts of this blog along with the efforts of those who Refuse to Do NOTHING;
* People will be liberated and empowered.
* That those with power will use it for the good of the people they serve.
* That they will listen to their constituents and respond with sincerity.
If you donÂ’t want to hear from the people, then you shouldnÂ’t ask. If you ask, you should listen. If you listen, you should act!
