This is because the tax base in the area was largely wiped out by the fires that burned homes last September. But there's some good news: The rural fire district received a $45,000 check from the Santiam Canyon Wildfire Relief Fund on Friday.
“I'm very stoked and more importantly I'm looking forward to the future with hope,” said Damon Faust, Deputy Chief for the Idanha-Detroit Rural Fire Protection District.
