Fire Fighting Coverage
It is the responsibility of the RM to provide Fire Protection Services, however the property owner is responsible for fire-fighting costs. In the event of a fire the property owner will be invoiced.
With the rising cost of fire services, Council encourages all ratepayers to review their insurance policies to ensure they have sufficient coverage for fire call-out charges. In the event of a fire, service fees can quickly reach thousands and tens of thousands of dollars. This specific overage is often overlooked or undervalued in rural home insurance policies, leaving many ratepayers underinsured. Please check with your provider to ensure your “Fire Department Charges” or “Fire Service Fee” coverage reflects today’s costs.
Please be advised: Per our policy, unpaid fire service charges will be added to the property taxes of the land location where the service was provided.
