Assembly Bill 29 - Fire Protection Fee

Many District Residents have, or will shortly, be receiving a bill for fire protection from the State of California Department of Forestry and Fire Protection. While this fee may come as a surprise to many people, legislation has been in the works for quite some time to implement this to California Residents who live in State Response Areas (SRA). Central Fire Protection District, along with the Santa Cruz County Fire Chiefs Association has outwardly opposed this bill due to it's negative impacts.

There are many resources to educate yourself and then take appropriate action in opposition to this Bill. For more information please select the icon below:
