Fire Prevention Bureau In Santa Cruz Co. To Relocate

From Central FD: Earlier this month, the Board of Directors for both Central Fire and Aptos la Selva Fire Protection Districts voted to enter into a shared services agreement for both of their respectiveFire Prevention Divisions. This joint operation is an effort to combine services and cut costs for both Fire Districts. The Boards also approved a name change from Fire Prevention Bureau to the Community Risk Reduction (CRR) Division.

CRR personnel will retain their autonomy as members of their respective Fire Districts. However, personnel from both agencies will report to one Fire Marshal and work from one office. The CRR Division will now be located in the Aptos la Selva Fire Administration Office located at 6934 Soquel Drive, Aptos. The relocation will be effective on April 1, 2019. If you have any questions regarding shared services, please contact Fire Chief Steven Hall directly at (831) 479-6842).
