South County Fire

South County Fire serves 250,000 residents in Brier, Edmonds, Lynnwood, Mountlake Terrace and unincorporated communities of southwest Snohomish County. If fire commissioners decide to seek a replacement EMS levy, it would appear on the primary election ballot for voters within the boundaries of the regional fire authority, encompassing the City of Lynnwood and unincorporated communities. The levy would not be on the ballot in the cities of Brier, Edmonds and Mountlake Terrace. These cities contract with the fire authority, paying a fee supported by taxes collected by the cities.
