Gold Ridge Fire Protection District

The Gold Ridge Fire Protection District is a special district governed by a board of directors, that provides fire protection and emergency medical services in the unincorporated areas of Sebastopol, California including; Hessel, Twin Hills, and Freestone. The district was formed in a merger and reorganization of the Twin Hills Fire District and the Hessel Fire District in 1993.[2] The district includes approximately 75 sq mi (190 km2) and serves a population of approximately 25,000. Gold Ridge Fire Protection District had a memorandum of understanding with the Bennett Valley Fire Protection District (a separate special district also located in Sonoma County) which allowed for sharing of overhead and staff that lasted for approximately 22 years and ended in 2019. Gold Ridge Fire Protection District works in close coordination with its surrounding fire districts/departments and provides automatic and mutual aid for all types of incidents and station cover assignments.[2]

gollark: I'm not really disagreeing as such with use of HTMLy apps, just with the ridiculously bloated thing they became.
gollark: No it's not. Who cares about "runtime" or "not wasting billions of CPU cycles", nobody should have to actually learn a GUI toolkit to make desktop apps! The only way forward is to bundle an entire instance of a browser with every single desktop app!
gollark: A programmer *optimizing*? In 2018? Unnatural.
