The following proposal will be submitted at one of the City Council meetings. A very significant expense—up to 60,000 rubles for the maintenance of the Kharkiv fire department—is borne entirely by the city budget. Now that almost everyone, recognizing the need for insurance, insures their property, fire departments provide an enormous service—primarily to insurance companies—by reducing their losses, yet the insurance companies contribute nothing toward the fire department’s operating costs. In view of this, it would be entirely fair to petition the government to require insurance companies to contribute to the costs of maintaining the fire department. In support of this petition, it may be pointed out that prior to the introduction of the City Ordinance of 1870, insurance companies were required to pay fees to the cities.
