VIDEO: The Rock Creek Fire District, which serves people in Kimberly, Hansen, and Murtaugh, is trying to pass a levy in the upcoming election. Fire chief Aaron Zent tells KMVT that the fire district is trying to pass a permanent mill levy on the May 19 primary election.
The Rock Creek Fire District currently has seven full-time firefighters, and they need to hire three more in order to deal with the rise in call volume.
They also need to replace some equipment that is old and worn out.
Anybody that is part of the Rock Creek Fire District should cast their vote on the ballot.
"The Rock Creek Fire District starts really at 3300 East and goes really to the Cassia County line, also includes a little of Cassia County South on Foothills Road, and is the greater portion of the Murtaugh, Kimberly and Hansen areas, including those towns," Zent said.
