In the old days, NYC Fire Depts sold signs (shields) that were put on structures. Not everyone bought one. If the Fire Dept was called to a fire, they would verify that premiums for fire insurance were up to date. Otherwise, they would go back to the station. A person that tells them: “I will pay for your services today” does not get help. The pre-existing condition of ‘not current with payments’ will affect service.
