Commissioners approve annexation of multiple parcels into La Grande Rural Fire Protection District
Summary
After a staff report, the board unanimously approved Court Order 2026-11 to annex several properties (petitioners listed in exhibits A–E) into the La Grande Rural Fire Protection District to improve fire protection; no public comments were offered.
The Union County Board of Commissioners voted unanimously April 15 to approve Court Order 2026-11, annexing several properties into the La Grande Rural Fire Protection District. Planning Director Inga Williams presented petitions from multiple property owners (listed in attached exhibits A–E) seeking annexation for improved fire protection; the fire district had indicated it was prepared to annex the properties.
Commissioner Jake Seavert expressed support noting the properties are remote, and Commissioner Paul Anderes observed the area is identified as wildland‑urban interface in the Community Wildfire Protection Plan and that a Firewise community effort is underway. There were no public comments during the hearing; the board approved the order by motion.
