There will be another meeting to discuss the need for an Emergency Services District on the Bolivar Peninsula. This meeting will be held in conjunction with County Commissioner Ryan Dennard’s meeting on Tuesday April 23 at 7 pm at the Galveston County Annex (Judge Vondra’s courtroom), 946 Noble Carl road, Crystal Beach, Texas. Part of the commissioner’s meeting will be used to discuss the upcoming election on May 11, 2013 to authorize the creation of the Galveston County EMERGENCY SERVICE DISTRICT NO. 2.
The district is supported by the High Island, Crystal Beach and Port Bolivar Volunteer Fire Departments and the peninsula Emergency Medical Services organization.
The district is also supported by the Bolivar Chamber of Commerce, the Bolivar Peninsula Special Utility District and over 100 of your neighbors, property owners and registered voters, who petitioned to place this issue on the ballot. If approved by the voters, the district could levy a property tax up to $.10 per hundred (10 cents) of assessed value and the tax revenue will be used to provide fire protection/prevention services and other emergency services (i.e., EMS) to the Bolivar Peninsula. Come to the meeting and gain valuable information to assist you in making your decision on how to vote on this important issue.
