The Motional Fire Underwriters argued at a Chamber of Commerce meeting that Hagerstown’s two cent higher deficiency fire insurance rate stems from lacking a full time fire chief and trained volunteers. They cited potential savings from inspections and improved firefighting, and contrasted with Cumberland’s moving toward negligible deficiency as its water supply improves.
