Fire Protection???
Does anyone else pay this on their utility bill? At the condo we were within the Bartlett city limits and apparently now we're neither Bartlett nor Memphis so we're considered county and there was a $27 charge on my bill for country fire protection. I asked around and everyone here pays it and it's every month. Wow! That was included in our property taxes up north. That's a lot for every household to be paying monthly. I could do a lot with that money, lol. Of course I want the protection, but it still seems kind of steep to me.

We don't pay fire protection, but just before we moved, the city added an ambulance service fee to the monthly water bill....I wonder if this is the wave of the future...just one more way to tax us. It was only 3.5/month, but still. It was irritating. I was glad to move before we had to start that every month. But 27!!! that's ridiculous! that's 324/yr or 3240 every 10 years sheesh!

I have a separate renter's insurance, but that is all.
Nothing odd on my water or utility bills

I just found this site that explains the fee: http://www.scfdtn.com/SCFD_P~1/SCFDfees.html Looks like we'll be paying it for a while, lol.
