Study Shows NY Volunteer Firefighters Save Billions
A Fireman's Association study estimates New York communities save more than 3 billion dollars annually with volunteers.

It notes property taxes would rise about 27 percent outside NYC. About 100000 volunteers operate in roughly nine of ten municipal departments.
