Pegasus Posted June 23, 2013 Share Posted June 23, 2013 If you live where you pay an annual fee to subscribe for fire response, would you share how much you pay? I realize that most cities/towns have it included in their taxes so you don't really know how much is going to pay for fire coverage. However, I'm outside the city and pay a separate annual fee to the fire response provider. It seems high to me at $350 per year. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Venia Posted June 23, 2013 Share Posted June 23, 2013 That does seem high. Do you have acreage or many buildings on your property? We live in rural California in a wildfire zone and also pay an additional amount per year to the state. Its $150 per habitable structure, per year (-$35 if we pay for local coverage through our tax bill, which we do; approx $50). We only have the one house, so its only $115 extra on top of our tax bill, but my parents have a main house and granny flat and pay $265 extra per year.

Pegasus Posted June 23, 2013 Author Share Posted June 23, 2013 No, its a regular single family home in a suburb. Also, our fee is going to a private fire response company, not to the state. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
