Community Input Matters

In a recent survey, over 70% of respondents rated improving fire services as "very important." Community feedback has helped shape the proposed bond, ensuring that investments reflect the city’s needs. As such, we strongly encourage citizen involvement and participation in learning more about this bond. We have an Open House scheduled on April 9th, 6:00 p.m., at Station No. 2 on Ramsey Road.  We hope to see you there.
