This "Regional Fire Authority" is creating a tax authority not constrained by the levy lid. This opens the door to massive tax increases supposedly justified by the "bow wave" of upcoming expenses. That doesn't make sense. If combining the two fire departments is intended to save money, then don't increase tax burden opportunities by doing so! Figure out a budget for the combined department, figure out what percentage each municipality should pay, figure out a cost-overrun system.
