Stormy weather can bring more than just rain; power surges and unsafe heating can create extreme fire hazards. Keep your home safe by unplugging unused electronics, keeping space heaters three feet from anything that can burn, and never running generators indoors. A few simple steps on a stormy day can protect your home and family more than you know!

Thank you to our district residents for participating in the May election and those who supported measure 24-521. The local option levy to renewing the current local option levy for our 9 firefighters did not pass.

The Board of Directors will review options and determine the next course of action; which may include going back to the voters in November. This discussion will take place at the June 8th, regular scheduled Board meeting.

Community input is welcome and can be submitted on our website or by calling the district office at 503-769-2601.

The current local option levy expires in June 2027.

As summer approaches, it’s important to create defensible space around your home. Defensible space is the buffer zone between your property and the surrounding wildland area. This space helps slow or stop the spread of wildfire and protects your home from embers, flames, and radiant heat. It also provides firefighters with a safer area to defend your property.

If you have natural debris around your home that you need to dispose of, call Stayton Fire District’s Main Office at 503‑769‑2601 to request a trailer drop‑off. We’ll deliver an empty trailer and pick it up once you’ve filled it, helping you create your own defensible space.

🔥May is Wildfire Awareness Month!🔥 Wildfire seasons are longer and more intense than ever. Oregonians can be wildfire prepared by taking projects one step at a time. These simple steps include clearing gutters, protecting vents, and removing things that can catch fire near the home.

Take the first step today by:
• Removing leaves, pine needles, and other combustible material from the roof, gutters, and deck (on and under) to prevent embers from igniting the home
• Covering vents with 1/8" metal wire mesh to prevent embers from entering the home
• Removing or relocating combustible items such as furniture, cushions, trash cans, and rugs at least five feet from the house
• Choosing options like gravel or pavers instead of bark mulch within the first five feet of the house
• Keeping lawns lean, clean, and green during fire season

As you clean up your yard, be mindful about disposal. Consider chipping, composting, or recycling. If burning is necessary, always follow local rules and restrictions. Debris burns that get out of control are the leading cause of human-caused wildfires in Oregon.
