The East Valley Fire Department serves the residents of Terrace Heights, Moxee and
the all the area east of the Yakima River from ridge-top to ridge-top. We
are bordered on the west by the Cities of Yakima and Union Gap, on the north by
Selah and
the Yakima Army firing range and to the south by Fire District #5, the
Lower Valley Fire Department.
EVFD is a municipal corporation and political subdivision of the State of Washington.
We are governed by a 3 person elected Board of Fire Commissioners.
The Fire Commissioners serve six year terms. The Board meets on the
2nd and 4th Monday of each month at 7 p.m. Meetings are held at East Valley Station 40,
2003 Beaudry Rd, Yakima WA.
Effective February 1, 2006, our insurance rating is a 5 with a tender credit. This
class 5 will only apply to commercial buildings with standard hydrant distribution
and water supply. All residential properties within 5 road miles of a recognized
fire station also receive a Class 5 rating.
We have 4 stations covering 15,000 citizens in an area of 125 square miles.
We are a combination department of volunteer, paid on call and paid members. We rely on our members to respond to
emergencies. Members are required to maintain high levels of training
and proficiency.
If you are interested in serving your community in a very rewarding way give
us a call or drop by one of our stations.
