ATTENTION VOTERS!!

Amendments 60, 61 and Proposition 101 will severely damage the ability of the Los Pinos Fire Protection District to provide Fire Protection and Emergency Medical Services. These three ballot issues would prevent Colorado’s Special Districts, and State and Local Governments from providing these and other essential services citizens want and need. The Los Pinos Fire Protection District is actively working with the Colorado Fire Chiefs Association and the Special District Association of Colorado to educate the public on the damage these initiatives will cause if they pass in November. Please click on the 60, 61, & 101 button on the left to learn more about these initiatives.
