🚒 COMMUNITY UPDATE | Understanding Your Fire Protection Fee

A Message from the District Manager:

Beulah Utilities District would like to provide some clarification regarding a recent change customers may have noticed on their monthly utility bills.

Our fire protection fee, which has supported emergency services in our community for many years, recently increased from $20 to $22 per month. Additionally, following improvements to our billing system, the charge previously displayed as “FIR” is now listed as “Fire” for greater clarity and transparency.

🚒 What Does Your Fire Protection Fee Support?

The fire protection fee helps provide the staffing, training, equipment, and resources necessary for Beulah Fire Department to remain prepared to serve our community.

Our firefighters respond to much more than fires, including:

● Fire suppression, prevention, and public education.

● Motor vehicle accidents and roadway emergencies.

● Severe weather, storm damage, and emergency assistance.

● Rescue support, emergency scene safety, and hazard mitigation.

● Numerous other emergencies and public safety needs throughout our community.

🏡 Why Is This Fee on My Utility Bill?

Unlike many communities where fire protection services are supported through property taxes, Beulah Fire Department is not funded through property taxes. Instead, our District utilizes a monthly fire protection fee collected through utility billing to help fund the personnel, equipment, training, and emergency response capabilities our community depends on.

Maintaining a trained and equipped fire department also contributes to our community’s fire protection capabilities, which may positively influence property insurance classifications and premiums depending on individual circumstances and insurance providers.

❤️ Our Commitment to You

We recognize that every dollar matters to the families and businesses we serve. Our responsibility is to balance affordability with maintaining the emergency services our community depends on.

We remain committed to responsible financial management, transparency, and ensuring our firefighters have the resources necessary to serve when needed.

Thank you for your continued trust and support. We are proud to serve this community and remain dedicated to protecting the people, homes, and businesses that make Beulah special.

Proud of our Beulah Fire Department for their continued dedication to serving our community! Teaching our children the importance of Fire Prevention is an investment in their future. Thank you to our firefighters and Beulah Elementary for making this possible! 🚒❤️
