That really depends on the state. Some states have different public school district funding mechanisms that don't depend as much on local property tax collections.

Fire trucks are far more expensive to acquire and maintain than necessary due to monopolistic actions by manufacturers, plus local governments buying fancier apparatus than they really need. There's a lot of room to trim those particular expenses.
