Welcome!

The members of Spokane County Fire District 4, past and present, have a long tradition of providing compassionate and efficient service to our neighbors.

We are an all risk department providing emergency response to fire, emergency medical, hazardous material, and a variety of other types of incidents. We provide these services with a combination of volunteer, part time and full time staff responding from nine stations located throughout the District.

Our District covers approximately 330 square miles of north Spokane County. We also respond to Stevens and Pend Oreille counties and other Spokane County jurisdictions surrounding our district through automatic and mutual aid agreements, and inter-agency agreements with the Washington State Department of Natural Resources, Bureau of Land Management, and the United States Forest Service.

We are pleased to offer this website as another tool to provide valuable information to our citizens and members. After touring our site, should you have any questions or comments about the website or the Fire District, please feel free to contact us.

Thank you for visiting our site and we appreciate hearing from you.

 

Sincerely,

Bill Neckels

Fire Chief
