Dear Editor,
How many of you realize that voting yes to ems will raise your taxes .68 cents per $1,000 of your land value? That is a lot of money! If your land is appraised at $100,000 you are paying an extra $68 a year...after they just raised our assessments 30%. It's already hard enough to live, and this is going to crush some people. How much money do they think they need???

P.S. Yes, she just corrected that :)
The auditor's office will provide you accurate amounts if needed.
Life lived longer verses NOT! All because of lack of EMT being available 24/7,proper equipment and vehicle and EMT CONTINUED EDUCATION.the costs and regulations are expensive
IN 78 years I never wanted to see the inside of an ambulance and last year I got a really good look at its inside.Vote YES so incase you need an ambulance ,It'll be available for you and no waiting to find a find a volunteer to drive it or attend to you.
Vote yes to save your life. Thanks

An ambulance is not guaranteed. They are not funded. They are a non-profit that relies on income from billing. Do you know what insurance reimburses for an ambulance call? Look it up, it's pennies on the dollar, and that's if they pay anything at all. This does not include the patients that require an ambulance and do not have any coverage at all.
Yes, a yes vote for EMS will help to address all of the scenarios mentioned here. Yes, a yes vote for EMS will ensure that someone will be there when you call. And I pray you don't have to make that call. Ever. But for those that do, the most welcome sight they will see is an ambulance and/or first responder willing and ready to save a life.
If it's not worth $68 a year or .17 a day to you, Valerie, what is it you would propose to keep our transport services and first responder services running? What is the value you think should be placed on guaranteeing an ambulance or first responder for your family or your neighbors?
VOTE YES FOR EMS to provided the support that these services need to keep us all safer every single day. Every life is worth it.

But, who am I kidding, you, & everyone else will just ignore this.
I should just keep my mouth shut, but, for some reason, I still have faith that one day, people will start waking up to the extremely corrupt system that we're living in, & we will actually unite against the elites who have forced us into this system. It may be a long, extremely difficult process, but isn't every life worth it?
Respectfully,

By the way, Tammy, I bet you still haven't done your research into Agenda 2030, Klaus Schwab, the WEF, the WHO, the members of Bildeberg, everything that Blackrock, & Vanguard own, etc., because if you had, we probably wouldn't be having this discussion.
So, don't ask what I would suggest, when you've already ignored my other suggestions. I invite you to go down my Facebook page with an OPEN MIND, & listen to/watch everything that I have posted, also visit the groups All Truth Matters, & Truth Exposed, heck, even Jen's Biblical Flat Earth Academy, if you don't question what you've been told your whole life after the mounds of evidence posted on these pages & doing your own research, then MK Ultra worked very well on you, & I pray God eventually helps you see the light.
[There are utility bills, food, medicine, gas, property taxes...on and on.] So...why are there so many unhealthy people in our country? I just answered that.
The part of this problem that enrages me is the fact that there are almost 10 million illegal immigrants who get three meals a day...a roof over their heads...clothing...and free healthcare. WHY DO THEY GET WHAT OUR AMERICAN CITIZENS DON'T GET? Something is wrong when we don't care about our own people first!!
Far be it from me to be one of those doofuses that laments the state of political discourse in this country, but I've got to know: how long have the Illuminati been pulling the strings in our little community? And what do they stand to gain once they take our ambulance service away from us?
Let's break this down:
On one side, we have a rural population in need of EMS services, a ballot measure to fund them by slightly raising property taxes, as well as in this thread a sitting member of City Council explaining why the measure is so important.
And on the other we have VB, who's point is either that things are hard and therefore we should vote against our own interests as a community because it saves her a tank of gas a year, OR that there is a grand conspiracy to control our minds and bodies and we are all powerless to these lizard people anyway.
I should consider myself lucky that the only time I've ever had to use Benton county's EMS services was back in the Halcyon days of 1998. Back before Facebook rotted the brains of an entire generation and convinced them that any money spent on public services was LITERALLY Marxism.
I live in Vinton. Many of the people I love live in and near this community. Young, old, healthy and not so much. My property taxes will go up if this ballot measure passes, which IS a bit of a bummer. But thats the cost of living in a functioning society. And even if I never take an ambulance ride again, I'd rather know that someone who really needs it can.
EVERYONE deserves access to emergency services when they need them, no matter how hilariously bad their politics are.
Vote yes.

Thank you, thank you, THANK YOU!

There's a distraction- when they tried providing healthcare for "American citizens" y'all cried about that, too.
Do you really believe ALL these people will get jobs and be able to rent their own places and pay for food and medical care? GET REAL!! Our citizens are having trouble doing this.
Americans can thank Joe Biden for this horrific mess in our country. It started the day he took office and rolled back all the border policies. [One of 17 things he did on his first day in office.] And the illegals have been destroying our country ever since!!! Have you seen the videos of towns in Texas? Have you seen Chicago and New York City? That's Joe Biden's New America.
THANKS JOE!!!!!
