Californian cities charging for 911 calls
2010-03-01
CALIFORNIAN cities are charging residents for calling the fire service.

Residents in Loma Linda will be charged $US300 for each 911 call to the Fire Department and non-residents will be billed $US400, the station reported.

Residents also can pay a $48 annual fee and avoid any call charges.

The station reported Loma Linda city officials said they needed the fees to offset the high cost of providing emergency services.

Loma Linda was at least the third California city to recently implement fees for emergency calls.
