Hazeldell RFD

The Hazeldell Rural Fire District (RFD) was formed in November 2002 to provide fire protection services to non-incorporated areas in the Oakridge/Westfir community of Lane County. The Hazeldell RFD is a legal municipal entity formed under Oregon Revised Statutes Chapters 198 and 357. This organization was created by a majority vote of Oakridge/Westfir rural residents, is funded through property tax assessments, and serves an area of about 15 square miles. To provide those services promptly to all rural residents, the Fire District needs to strategically locate facilities and fire fighting equipment across its area of responsibility.
