Deer Mountain Fire Protection District works alongside several neighboring fire and emergency service agencies through mutual-aid agreements. While these agencies often respond together during emergencies, they are funded in different ways and operate under different governmental structures.

The comparison chart below provides a side-by-side overview of the agencies within our mutual-aid network, including each organization's assessed valuation, property tax mill levy (where applicable), estimated property tax revenue, and funding model. It also highlights the differences between special districts, municipal fire departments, separate EMS districts, and nonprofit volunteer departments to help provide context for how emergency services are funded throughout our region.
