Our department was originally formed in May of 1976 as the Deer Creek Volunteer Firefighter's Association. In 1996, we became the title 19 fire department known as Deer Creek Fire Protection District.
DCFPD is a title 19 fire department, which means we are supported by property taxes in an unincorporated area. We cover roughly 53 square miles of first in district. We have averaged between 500-545 calls for the last two years. Of those calls, we only average approximately 35% EMS. We have two stations. One at 20855 N. Meridian Ave, and one at 22700 N. Pennsylvania. Our fleet of apparatus consists of 3 engines (pumpers), 1 tanker/pumper, 1 tanker (tender), 4 quick attack brush pumpers, 1 squad/light rescue, and 2 command/support vehicles. We have 6 paid firefighters, and our goal is to have 28 volunteers, to make our roster total 34 members.
