Hubbard Fire District operations narrowly passing

Voters in the May 20 election are narrowly approving a Hubbard Fire District operations levy that would cost property owners $1.10 per $1,000 of assessed value.

The current levy, which expires June 30, charges property owners 99 cents per $1,000.

The levy on the ballot would cost about $275 per year for an assessed property value of $250,000 and raise $2.4 million over five years. That's about $26.60 per year more than the current levy.

The money from the levy on the May 20 ballot would be used for personnel and to purchase updated medical and firefighting equipment for the district, which covers 6.8 square miles and has four paid firefighters.
