Well now great that you have the kiddys all lined out, how about getting out and driving through a few alleys and do something about the weeds that lazy people can not seem to cut down. Is that not a fire hazard? After all you are the fire inspector, and check a few vacent lots while your at it!

maybe you should check out what department in the city handles what. the fire department does not handle weeds in the alley or on vacant lots code enforcement does, and if you are so worried then maybe you should go out there with your lawnmower and help out. or you could just go to the city council and cry about how bad the city looks and how you don't care to help.
