There is an interesting theme here.
Why is it every couple years when these issues come up, the police union is acting and being professional and the fire department is always the problem.
Outsource fire to the county or the state. Keep the paramedics which are a smaller fraction of the department. We will still get the service at a much lower cost.

I'm sure the fire department would love to merge with County fire department. They would get a 35+ % raise! The Palo Alto fire department is one of the lowest paid departments in the bay area and the cheapest to run.
