CLEVELAND, Tenn. – Bradley County’s fire districts have changed to account for three fire stations – on Georgetown Road, Minnis Road and Dalton Pike – that began operations last summer.
The redistricting is based on whether homes and other properties are within five miles of Bradley County Fire & Rescue stations that have full-time, paid staff, County Mayor D. Gary Davis said.
These include the downtown and Tasso Lane stations in addition to the new stations.
The redistricting will mean higher fire taxes for properties included in the expanded primary fire district, but fire tax rates have not been raised, said Davis.
