Calling all members of the Olathe Community!
We ask for your support and to contribute to discussions regarding the District's financial status and needs, property taxes, RAR, mill levy and the need for an additional $300,000 in revenue to update apparatus, provide for recruitment and retention, and maintain service levels. Please plan on attending our next Board of Directors meeting to provide input and learn more about OFPD. Tuesday, August 16, 2022 at 6:30pm at the Olathe Fire Station located at 406 S. 5th St., Olathe. See notice here.
