Background

According to the district's ballot title, this measure would dissolve the Mt. Angel Fire District and end its permanent tax rate, but only if voters also approve dissolving the Monitor Rural Fire Protection District and forming a new Mt. Angel-Monitor Fire District.

The summary says the two districts already operate together under agreement, and the new district would combine their boundaries with a permanent tax rate of $1.97 per $1,000 of assessed value.

It says all employees, assets and liabilities would transfer to the new district, with dissolution effective December 31, 2026 and the new district providing service from January 1, 2027, including increased daytime staffing and replacement of apparatus reaching end of life around 2032.

Put on the ballot by Mt. Angel Fire District board (date and vote not stated); notice dated August 13, 2026.
