To provide emergency fire and medical service to our response area, the District employs twenty-eight (28) career emergency services personnel, who are all trained fire fighters and also certified as emergency medical technicians. The district also employs four and one half (4.5) staff personnel who work in financial, clerical, and vehicle maintenance roles.
