Summary
Baker Fire Department needs your vote to fund critical growth—500 to 1,000 more calls expected next year. A modest $200 annual tax hike (for homes valued at $200K) would fund six new firefighters, a brand-new station under construction, and help retain talent against higher-paying neighbors. Without this vote, they’ll have to scramble for funding elsewhere. Early voting runs now through June 20—with election day June 27—so your support could mean safer streets and a stronger response team.
