## Resource

Rutland City firefighters may soon live up to 15 miles from the station — a big shift from the current 5-mile rule designed for lightning-fast response. Fire Chief William Lovett says the change is needed to tackle staffing shortages and soaring housing costs, making it easier to recruit and retain top talent. The proposal heads to city aldermen Tuesday, with final approval resting in voters’ hands — a move that could reshape how Rutland keeps its streets safe in today’s tougher economy.
