Reno refuses to allow the paramedics at the County station in the background to respond to medical calls at the Del Taco they share a lot with or the Walmart next door nor the schools down the street. Do you care about your kid's safety?

Thank you to the fine men and women of the Reno Police Department. The job is dangerous and no career officer leaves without scars - physical or otherwise. You are the thin blue line. Since incorporation Reno, a big little city, has lost about 14 brave officers in the line of duty. Many other survivors have been shot, stabbed and run over. To honor you, Jeff Church has written the first ever, “History of RPD” available on request to anyone. The sacrifices of all dedicated officers is truly appreciated.
Did you know?
- Reno firefighters are allowed to come to work with illegal drugs and alcohol in their system.
- Reno is taxing us over $14 million annually for additional police and fire protection we are not getting.
- Reno fire and police career officers may be among the highest compensated in the entire USA.
- The Reno Fire Department refuses Automatic Medical Aid with others and prohibits volunteers.
- Reno has closed various fire stations even when adequate staffing is available even on Red Flag danger days!
- Taxes are going up and up and the 3% tax cap went away in the last legislature.
- The WC1 Sales Tax has been a dismal failure. Washoe now highest sales tax in state. Car sales sluggish but booming in Lyon and Carson as taxpayers vote with their wallet. Local governments struggle with revenue loss. School building costs skyrocket higher than we were told. Local politician calls school district “Dishonest”. More at Reno Tax Revolt.
- Why are gas prices in Washoe 40 cents higher than Carson? Gas prices even higher than California.
