Elbert Fire is Working to Lower Your Insurance Rates!

Elbert Fire Protection District has recently hired National Fire Services Office to help do the ISO Insurance rating test. Currently Elbert Fire Protection District is a 7/10 district. At our current rating it is costing the residents of our community to pay more for insurance for fire coverage. At our Districts current ISO rating residents of our community are not getting preferred rates.

National Fire Services Office has done recommendations for the Fire Department to better ready the Department for the up coming test. It is the hope of the Fire Department and Members to lower the rating so the residents of our community can save near half of there current Insurance cost. 

Read more in our 2011 Annual Report (PDF required) or for more information about Elbert Fire Protection District and the ISO rating please feel free to stop by the station and speak to one of our members. The Elbert Fire Board meets every month on the second Tuesday at 7:00 P.M. at the fire station. Members meetings are on the first Tuesday of every month at 7:00 P.M.

Thank You for your time and support!
