05 / COMMUNITY QUESTIONS

Use these answers to find the right public resource. Meeting schedules and County safety notices can change, so confirm details with the linked official source.

What services does Mason County Fire District 12 provide?

District 12 provides fire protection, rescue and emergency medical services. This public website helps residents find station locations, meeting details, official records, community notices and volunteer information. It is not a dispatch channel. If there is an active fire, medical emergency or immediate threat, call 911 rather than sending a message through the website.

About District 12

How many stations does the District list?

The District lists four stations. The Stations page provides the address for each location, and the map page places those facilities on the official Mason County GIS layer. The public map is a geographic reference; it does not show where crews are available at a particular moment. For emergency response, call 911. For general questions about the service boundary, contact the District directly.

When and where do commissioners meet?

Regular commissioner meetings are scheduled monthly on the third Wednesday at 6:00 p.m. at Matlock Fire Hall, Station 12-1, 2950 W. Matlock Brady Road, Elma, WA 98541. Dates and formats can change, so check the current meeting page and agenda before traveling. Community members are welcome to attend, subject to the details in the latest public notice.

Confirm meeting details

Where can I find agendas and public records?

Use the Document Center to search public meeting agendas, resolutions, financial documents, governing records and other material the District has made available. Search by a word in the title or topic, then review the record itself for its date and contents. The online library may not include every historical document. If a record you need is not listed, contact the District to ask about access and the formal request process.

Search public records

Where can I check current burn restrictions?

Burn restrictions are set and updated by Mason County based on local conditions. District 12 links to the County Fire Marshal’s current restrictions page; check that notice before starting an outdoor fire. County rules may distinguish residential, recreational and permitted land-clearing burns. Conditions can change, so rely on current official County guidance rather than an older notice or a social post.

What should I do if I need emergency help?

Call 911 from a phone for a fire, medical emergency or another situation that needs immediate help. This website and the District business office are not emergency dispatch services. The U.S. National 911 Program also directs people to call 911 for emergencies and explains that emergency assistance is not available through its website. If possible, be ready to share the location and nature of the emergency with the call-taker.

National 911 Program guidance

How can I ask about volunteering?

Start at the Volunteer page and contact the Fire Chief about current volunteer fire or EMS opportunities. Ask which roles are open, what training is required and what time commitment is expected. Openings and requirements can change, so the District is the best source for current details. The page gives you a contact path; an inquiry does not guarantee a role or appointment.

Volunteer information

How can I verify a District update or contact the office?

For non-emergency questions, use the Contact page to find District office information. News & Alerts carries public notices and updates, while meeting agendas and public documents are in the Document Center. For details that change—such as meeting dates or County burn restrictions—follow the linked primary source instead of treating an older homepage notice as current. Never use a website form or email to request emergency response; call 911.
