From: Chief C.L. Sasser T.I.F.D. �a
Subject: Annual Fire Protection / Subscription
Date: September 18, 2013
Pertaining to the additional information on the annual fire protection / subscription
requested by city council I submit the following information:
1. When does the city collect the subscription from the unincorporated Tybee area in
the fire district? Billing is at the end of the year in December. Notifications are
made and a sign is posted at the entrance reminding homeowners that
subscriptions are due.
2. Does DAV participate in the fire subscription? Yes
3. What is the estimated homeowners insurance savings by paying the annual fire
protection subscription? An additional fee is paid Tor the subscription, along
with the yearly insurance cost which could be in the area of$3,000.00 or
more a year for a ISO Class 9 rating. The rating is high due to no hydrants
in the area.
4. What are the consequences for a homeowner, if the homeowner does not pay
the annual fire protection / subscription? Will the insurance company raise the
insurance cost or will they cancel the insurance? They can do either, depends
on the insurance company. They require homeowners to subscribe for fire
protection and send proof, however they do not follow-up every year on the
proof of subscription.
5. What do other fire departments in the area charge for annual fire protection fee?
How do they calculate it ?
