Salaries for Duncanville's first responders are not competitive with those of comparable cities, and the skills, experience, and reputation of our fire and police make them highly desirable by other cities that offer higher pay and better benefits. It is imperative that the city of Duncanville explore options for increasing salary and benefits for our first responders, but in order to do so in a sustainable manner, it would help to do something about our Economic Development policy and strategies...
