They’re trying
to save your life.
Give ’em an even break.
When it comes to saving your life—or the lives of your family—who wants to cut corners?
Yet that’s exactly what we’re doing — because we have not provided sufficient fire fight-
ing facilities to cover the growing needs of our citizens.
There is only one fire station north of 50th street, none south of 59th street. The nearest
Oklahoma City fire engines to Hefner Junior Highschool are four miles away.
In 1966, fires cost 25 lives and $3.3 million in property damage. The efficiency and dedi-
cation of our Fire Department were contributing factors in not having more shocking statistics.
But we can’t expect them to perform miracles. We must give them an even break in protect-
ing our lives and property.
Included in the CIP issue are $2.4 million to allow construction of seven fire stations...
relocation and remodeling of four additional stations. As a result of the seven year program,
all parts of town would be safer.
Is it worth a few cents a day to give your family the protection from fires that CIP will
provide?
Vote Yes... May 28
Over $200,000,000 in improvements... for pennies a day!
