NOTE: Good news is Gardner, Kansas is the only Public Safety Department left in the metro. Gardner is currently in talks with Johnson County Fire District 1 to have them provide fire protection for Gardner. At one time there were three full service Public Safety Departments in the metro Galdstone, MO Riverside, MO and Gardner, KS.

I remember living in KCMO when Riverside was still a Public Safety Department. First time I chased them to a fire I couldn't understand why so many cops were showing up on the scene in their patrol cars, until I saw a few of them jump into their back seats and don their turnout gear. For the life of me, I could NEVER understand the logic of such an organization! <img src='http://www.firepics.net/groupboards/public/style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/icon_crazy.gif' class='bbc_emoticon' alt='' />
