Fire District Confusion
The Hurricane Valley Fire Department expenditures have been exceeding income. The formation of a fire district where the costs would be shared by all four communities of Hurricane, Toquerville, LaVerkin and Virgin through a levy tax was suggested by the Washington County Commissioner. Hurricane discovered that the proceeds of the tax increases weren’t going to meet their needs so they have opted to back out of the district altogether and go into a billing system to charge the other cities for fire services on a monthly basis. The fire district issues are in the process of being resolved so that the cities of LaVerkin, Virgin and Toquerville will all receive proper fire coverage.
