Summary

The bill would require every Indiana county—except those that already contain a consolidated city or are fully inside an existing fire protection district—to form a county fire and emergency service board and, by Jan. 1, 2028, create a fire and emergency service district to cover unincorporated township areas that provide fire protection. It also bars townships (unless in a county with a consolidated city) from adding new property tax levies for fire services after Dec. 31, 2027. The aim is to centralize fire protection services and limit overlapping local taxes.
