Ensuring Our Community’s Safety: Understanding the Proposed Fire Fee Increase

Pecan Grove Fire Department Residents,

As your Fire Chief, I want to bring to your attention an important matter that directly impacts on the safety and well-being of our community. We have recently submitted a request to increase the fire fee by $3.98 per month, bringing the total to $27.56 per month. This adjustment is necessary to support our proposed budget of $3.3 million for 2025.

To provide some context, the typical budget for a fire department serving an area and population like ours, Aliana, and Cinco Ranch, is approximately $4.5 million. This would translate into a monthly fire fee of $38.00 per month. Our proposed budget, while more conservative, is essential to maintaining the critical services we provide to our communities.

One of the key reasons for this increase is the need to sustain the minimum staffing of three firefighters per fire engine—a standard we implemented in mid-2024. Having three firefighters on each engine is crucial for effective firefighting, rescue operations, CPR, and all other emergency incidents that we respond to. While the National Fire Protection Association (NFPA) recommends a staffing level of four firefighters per engine, our current level of three is the minimum required to ensure both the safety of our firefighters and the effectiveness of our emergency response.

Maintaining this staffing level is also essential for preserving our ISO 2 fire rating. This rating plays a significant role in keeping homeowner insurance rates lower. For example, if our ISO rating were to drop to a 5, the annual insurance premium for a $300,000 home would increase to approximately $3,156. However, by maintaining our ISO 2 rating, that same policy would cost around $2,645—a savings of over $500. For a $500,000 home, the savings would be even greater, around $800 per year.

Another factor contributing to the need for this fee increase is the growing reliance on part-time paid firefighters. While we are actively working to increase our volunteer membership, it is not sufficient to meet the demands of our expanding and aging neighborhood. The need for dependable, trained personnel is more critical than ever, and part-time staffing helps fill this gap.

Additionally, Fort Bend County is eliminating financial support to all fire departments within the county. This significant loss in revenue unfortunately must be passed on to our residents to ensure that we can continue to provide the level of service you deserve and expect.

We understand that any increase in fees is a concern, but we believe this is a necessary step to ensure the safety of our community. The increase will allow us to continue providing the high-quality emergency services that protect our residents, homes, and businesses.

Thank you for your understanding and continued support of the Pecan Grove Fire Department. Together, we can maintain the safety and well-being of our wonderful community.

Sincerely,

Chief Jerod Vontz
Pecan Grove Volunteer Fire Department

Extra Service for Bagged Debris

GFL will make a special passthrough in Pecan Grove on Saturday, July 20th to pick up bagged storm debris only. Have these items curbside by 7am. Please make sure these items are separated from large storm debris and visible for the crews. Do not park in the streets as trucks are having a difficult time collecting storm debris. Recycling service will resume normal pickup Monday, July 22nd.

Fort Bend County continues picking up large storm debris. For up to date information regarding storm debris pickup, please visit Fort Bend County Homeland Security and Emergency Management social media page.

Update Regarding Trash Service with GFL

In the wake of the hurricane and the large amounts of debris left from its path, it would be impossible for us to provide normal collection and be able to service all residents in your area.

By prioritizing and ensuring that ALL regular household garbage is collected each day and this weekend, we are preventing unsanitary conditions from happening in our neighborhoods.

This means we have limit regular bulk/green waste to three (3) bagged items outside the can and suspend recycle collection for the next week of July 15th.

We appreciate your patience and understanding as we work to get back to normal.

RECOVERY EFFORTS FOLLOWING HURRICANE BERYL

As early as Saturday, July 13th, Fort Bend County Road & Bridge will begin large storm debris collection. Please know it will take days for them to make rounds in Pecan Grove, so we are asking for patience during this time.

  • Construction and Demolition Materials (fence pickets, sheet rock, brick, etc)
  • Electronic Waste
  • Household Hazardous Waste
  • White Goods (large electrical goods used domestically such as refrigerators and washing machines, typically white in color)
  • Vegetative materials (trees, limbs, brush, leaves, etc.)

DO NOT MIX OR PLACE NORMAL HOUSEHOLD TRASH WITH STORM DEBRIS CURBSIDE.

Place the debris piles at the curb in the public right-of-way in front of your home or business as soon as possible. If debris is in the road or in your front yard, it will not be picked up.

Please do not block any public utility such as:

  • fire hydrants
  • water valves/meters
  • road signs
  • manholes
  • street signs

If properly separated, it will be picked up by crews. For the remainder of your household garbage, bagged storm debris and small bundled green waste, GFL is continuing to pick these items up until all have been collected.

For up to date information regarding storm debris pickup, please visit Fort Bend County Homeland Security and Emergency Management social media page.

THANK YOU.
