What's New for the BCVFD?

Our fire department is part of the spanish Peaks/Bon Carbo Fire Protection District, and our District Board decides how allocated district tax monies are spent. With the Board's authorization of those allocated funds, along with donated funds, we've accomplished the following:


  • Set up our website at www.spbcfpd.org
  • Purchased three new cyclinders and six new SCBAs (self-contained breathing apparatus) for our firefighters
  • Purchased a compressor
  • Purchased six dry hydrant kits, allowing us to pump water out of existing funds for quicker fire suppression
  • Purchased Officer's Training DVDs
  • Purchased a new radio for fire truck Unit 100
  • Purchased software to reprogram radios, which will save taxpayers thousands of dollars over the coming years
  • Upgraded our computer training program
