Yeah, sounds like when I got a speeding ticket in Louisiana - they didn't have the records in a computer, she looked it up in what looked like a recipe box.

Instead of an opt IN program, they should make it an opt OUT program.

Make it automatically built into the property taxes - if you choose to opt out, you have to sign a waiver which indemnifies the fire department.

Include a clause that if they can't find a record they must assume the person didn't opt out.

Except that if they aren't in the incorporated area of town, they likely don't pay any property taxes to the town.
