As it stands now, three stations in the town are run by Rural Metro Fire. Those three stations could soon be closing with another neighboring fire service taking it over.
The move would result in stations 79, 82 and 81 being run by the Green Valley Fire District.
Rural Metro has been serving the Sahuarita community since the 70's. The department relies on funding from a voluntary membership, which according to Chief Isselhard, they only have about 40 percent of the community participating, which is why the move to annex made the most sense. The process will likely take a year, but both chiefs say the men and women working the three stations in Sahuarita won't be without a job.
As for the three stations and if they'll still be used, Fire Chief Wunder says they do have a developer looking at the stations to determine what will be needed.
