Hope you don’t compare the size of body parts the same as you do with “big buildings” You might disappoint your date! Good luck on your advancement test it’s a bit harder than your entrance exam, unless you fit into a certain category then keep “calculating” as is ,you’ll be just fine! Oh by the way genius they built 275 Pearl St as the headquarters of HFD not as just a firehouse . In case your unaware HFD headquarters has been on High St for a number of years now.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-982633190780306493.post-28604004558139286732020-02-11T08:39:14.992-05:002020-02-11T08:39:14.992-05:00What about Engine 7??

The same can be said about almost every single piece house in the city. It's not our fault the city of Hartford build huge firehouses many years ago.Thats no excuse to shut down a firehouse when as a taxpayer I see plenty of spending going around from city hall. Knock every firehouse down and build cottages if that's the caseAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-982633190780306493.post-558392689831549922020-02-11T08:32:30.690-05:002020-02-11T08:32:30.690-05:00You could have not said it any better!!!

Please provide a legimate example where a 34,000 sq foot building housing 6 city employees is a benefit to the the TAXPAYERS who fund it? Also , I now it’s only been a short time but are there any examples yet where a civilian was affected by this long distance move by the TAC? Were their EMS response times in the most dense part of the city delayed putting civilians in compromised scenarios? WAIT, that’s right they don’t respond to EMS calls only real calls were there needed. 34,000 sq ft —-34,000 sq ft —34,000 sq ft . Please soak in that amount in people ,,6 firefighters expect you to heat/air condition/electrify/supply water/ plumbing/insure etc. AFTER you pay millions to renovate it.

Who gets blamed for their failures? Teachers. I wish you would look into all of the schools they are "reconstituting". I believe they purposely sabotaged these schools so they could obtain grant money from the state. What's happening in Hartford Schools is criminal.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-982633190780306493.post-58198947878065160342020-02-02T19:17:12.051-05:002020-02-02T19:17:12.051-05:00I knew the mayor and fire chief were full of crap...I knew the mayor and fire chief were full of crap I see there is plenty of state funding for other programs but not to remodel a central downtown station firehouse.
