The City Council voted 8-0 last night to request the City Manager to provide data on the response times of the fire department pre and post budget cuts. Although the agenda item was submitted last week, the news broke about the problems in the City of Los Angeles and the data their City Council received on response times. Long Beach City Management gave the council the following memo:
Fire 001
