Briceland Fire Protection District Notice of Public Hearing
The Briceland Fire Protection District will host a public meeting on Wednesday July 23, 2025 from 5 to 6 pm at the Briceland Fire Station to answer the District residents’ questions regarding a parcel tax increase due to rising costs.
The parcel tax which was approved by 85% of the District voters in August 2012 included pre- approval of an annual cost of living increase tied to the Consumer Price Index, but no greater than 5% per year.
The District proposes to increase the tax by 3.0% in Fiscal Year 2025-2026, from $101.42 to $104.46. This increase is based on the rate of inflation at the end of Fiscal Year 2024-2025 as determined by the California State Department of Finance.
