Volunteer Fire Departments; provide means to establish and administer fire districts

HB 325 allows the Lawrence County Commission to establish and administer fire districts within Lawrence County. It enables volunteer fire departments to incorporate as fire districts, following approval from the Lawrence County Firefighters and Rapid Responders Association and the County Commission. These fire districts would be funded through fire protection fees, which require voter approval for collection by the revenue commissioner. The bill also defines the boundaries of these districts, outlines their governance, and details how they can interact with municipalities.
