It occurs to me that the same people who want guarantees - in writing - that firefighters who save their property will not adversely impact the potential saleability of their home are also the the ones who, should they find that the firefighters have serendipitously improved their property by burning dead or unsafe trees or removing unsightly or unwanted sheds and other unusable buildings, will insist on writing out a check to the city or state for the added value.

Right.
