Firehouse closing

[jennifer7]

why are some parts of the city loaded with fire stations
and others have none , Example why do they close
engine 18, fillmore & genesee, ladder 11 fillmore near william
Engine 16 Jefferson & kingsley ladder 9 Elmwood & virgina
but keep open Engine 28 on lovejoy when its one of the least
active houses and its few blocks away from sloan and not centraly located, its also surrounded by other fire houses engine 22 broadway & bailey, Engine 31, ladder 14 at bailey & Doat,
Engine 35 & ladder 15 Bailey & clinton, Example Fillmore &
Genesee wears the closet fire house ?

If I remember correctly, the fire houses have a closing schedule that rotates. I will look into find more information on that.

Politics plays a role in what gets closed, where the new hires are built, it isn't only call numbers...Lovejoy has a strong lobby.
