I am writing this proposal to help solve the issue of funding Bartow Fire Protection District. This facility has been suffering from the low revenue and has been put into a debt. Now, this facility will be handed over and put under the jurisdiction of San Bernardino County if the citizens of the City of Barstow do not help with funding the facility’s needs. Barstow Fire Protection District needs more money so that they can repay the debt, buy more equipment, and reduce the response time. As a solution to this issue, they proposed Measure J, which will increase the current tax by a half of a cent. This money will not be used for increase in salaries of the workers or to help out other cities. It will be used only for Barstow and the fire department’s necessities. I would like to enlighten my audience about this problem and persuade them to vote yes on Measure J.
