South Kitsap Fire & Rescue recently approved a resolution to place a fire levy lid lift on the November 8, 2022 General Election ballot. If approved by voters, the funding will be used to hire additional firefighters over the next five years to reduce response times and improve safety for the community and its firefighters. The district is accepting names of people interested in participating in voter pamphlet statement pro and con committees. Citizens interested in participating in the pro or con committee, please contact Chief Jeff Faucett via email at jfaucett@skfr.org by July 27, 2022.
