2025 Call Volume


In 2025, the District will continue its Community Risk Reduction Program to help educate the public on ways to reduce the risk of losses from wildland fires and fire hazards as well as providing fire prevention presentations to the schools.  Additionally, the District will work with the local clinics to develop educational programs to reduce 9-1-1 calls for non-emergency medical problems.

2024 Call Volume


In 2014, the District had 355 calls for service with an average of 30 calls per month.  With an average of 54 calls per month over the last three years, we have seen a dramatic increase in call volume.  In response to the increased call volume, the District has increased full time staff from three in 2014 to nine in 2024.   The District is fortunate that volunteer first responder numbers have stayed steady at between 25 and 30 during the last 10 years.  However, we would welcome more volunteers!
