Budget PlanningPublic SafetyDetected May 11, 2026

The North Gilliam County Rural Fire Protection District Budget Committee met on May 11, 2026 and approved the 2026-2027 budget and tax rate. During the discussion, they increased several operating lines, including transfers for wages, training and travel, and fuel in anticipation of a potentially heavy fire season and higher costs. These budget changes signal that the district expects greater operational tempo and is willing to invest more in staffing support, firefighter training, and readiness.While no specific procurements or vendors are named, the expanded training and fuel budgets and the overall operating levy provide funding capacity for additional training services, travel logistics support, and potentially equipment and supplies tied to wildfire response preparation.

Key increases: transfer to Gilliam County Fire Service from 27605 to 37605 for wages if needed; training and travel from 5000 to 10000; fuel from 50000 to 70000.
