We would like to express our appreciation and gratitude to residents of the Fredericktown Community Fire District for voting in support to pass the replacement 1-mil levy that was on the November 7th ballot.
“We are blessed to have the backing of the community in the many facets of the work that our firefighters do,” said FCFD Assistant Chief Jason Bostic. “Our interaction with the community since the announcement of the levy has been very positive and the feedback from residents has been equally such.”
The replacement levy is the first of its type that the fire district has went after since 2003 when it was originally voted in. At that time the only change was in the Village of Chesterville leaving the fire district.
“We know and understand that this election there were several issues on the ballot to be decided in addition to the current economic climate that weighed heavy on decision making,” said Assistant Chief Bostic. “Our firefighters don’t take lightly their call to service or asking for support. We will continue to be good stewards to make best use of the finances you have entrusted us with.”
