Membership

We encourage everyone to become a member!

• Membership ensures our fire department can continue to operate successfully, payments can be made, equipment can be serviced, and training can be provided. So that our department can best serve you.
• Our fire department is 100% volunteer. This means that we are not tax-based and receive no funds from the county.
• We have always paid our. We have never been in debt, and we own all of our assets: vehicles, equipment, buildings, and land.
• Your fire insurance may be lower because of this department and our three strategically located stations throughout our service area.
• Payment ensures member coverage for an entire year rather than per-incident billing.
• Members support their community, and all the fire department volunteers (firefighters, dispatchers, board members, auxiliary, and anyone else who donates their time).

Dues are based on the number of acres of land you use and the structures on that land. Annual memberships run from June 1st to May 31st of each year. Payments made more than 30 days late are subject to late fees of 1.5% interest monthly. New memberships can be started at any point of the year.

Note: If you own more than one parcel, these fees apply to them as a single parcel IF they are contiguous and under the same owner name and category. Non-contiguous parcels require an additional fee appropriate to that property. Only one category will be applied to any given property.
