Smith River Fire Protection District – 2024
Smith River Fire Protection District (“Smith River FPD” or “District”) has submitted an application for annexation of approximately 972 acres (73 parcels) to the east of US 101 and located outside the District boundaries, but within its adopted Sphere of Influence. The proposed annexation area currently receives services from Smith River FPD on a “goodwill” basis with no defined responsibility or sustainable funding. The proposed annexation area is within the Oceanview Sphere of Influence (SOI) and has experienced residential development and population growth over the past 20 years, highlighting an increased need for fire protection and emergency medical services. Annexation would make Smith River FPD responsible for services and establish ongoing funding.
