Lee County Fire District

Lee County has proposed upgrading fire districts and improving the tax base for their support. We have each received a mailing recently regarding proposals that will be finalized in June. A meeting will be held on June 24. Our current fire rates of 12.9 cents per $100 valuation is about 40% higher than most other Lee County fire districts. Only the Clearwater district at 18 cents, is higher. Most are 7 or 8 cents. This may be due to the isolated nature of our district, the Northwest Pocket district.Go to the Lee County Website for more information.
