Under what obligation would the homeowner have to repay the fire department?
Now you're requiring the firefighters to get a binding legal consent that the dude will pay whatever it costs to put out the fire, in addition to whatever else is going on? Seriously.
Also, why not just allow them to gamble, oh, in the way it currently allows? You pay the $75 or gamble the fire?
I think you're not even close to how this would (or should) really work.
