Stuff like this has to get done. Period.
If these simple things are too cumbersome for a small town to pay for then they can dissolve the City PD and contract out to the County Sheriff to do the police work. Here in the Phoenix metropolitan area both Sun City and the Town of Guadalupe contract out to the Maricopa County Sheriff Department.

Like I said, I'm all for it, just want to know where it comes from and who really is saddling the bill.... see you guys all are willing to decry someone for their choices of fiscal prudence... maybe when you get to steward budgets of millions of dollars and have to start picking and choosing.
You guys just want people to sit here saying, "Oh yeah... what a bitch she wants to charge for rapekits!! how much more crazy is she!?!?!?!?!"
I'm not interested in that emotional decry. I'm going to say simple, who's going to pay for it? Great, increase everything by $.25. Wonderful! keep adding things to that bottom line and soon, you've inadvertantly increased taxes by a fucking lot. NYC real estate taxes just went up 25% in one year. Services are cut by a percentage because the budget won't balance.
But you're going to say, "ooooh but raaaapeee!!!" No, I say FISCAL RESPONSIBILITY.
Sorry, fuck that, I'll gladly pay for social programs, and the "who's going to pay for the fire department" Duh, didn't you know? some counties actually charge you for services since SOME fire departments are not part of the city budgets. FDNY EMT comes to your house here in NYC, guess what that ride costs $400+ and you get a bill sent to your house.
