Fire District Facts

  • The Coburg Fire District covers 32 square miles from the McKenzie and Willamette Rivers on the South and West to the Lane County Line on the North, which is milepost 205 on I-5.  Coverage is East to the Coburg Hills and mile post 3.5 on McKenzie View Drive.  However, Coburg has automatic aid agreements with the Eugene, Springfield, Mohawk, and Harrisburg but often assists with other Lane County Fire Districts.  Coburg responds to car accidents on I-5 as far south as the Beltline.  During the summer months, Coburg often sends people or equipment to aid in major wildfires in the state of Oregon.
  • The Coburg Fire District volunteers get called over 360 times a year for medical, fire, hazardous materials, and vehicle accidents. That's about once a day!
  • The Fire District is governed by a five member Board of Directors, and stands alone financially. The Fire Station is located inside the city limits of Coburg, but is not a department of the city.  Only about half of the homes that are protected by the Coburg Fire District are located within the City of Coburg.
  • Coburg Fire District currently has 25 volunteers.  Eight have been volunteering for over 10 years while three that have been serving for over 25 years!  All volunteers respond to medical calls but 17 are currently Emergency Medical Technicians with two more currently enrolled in classes at LCC.  Additionally, the Fire Chief and an EMT/Maintenance person are the only two paid staff that work during the day on district projects, and supplement volunteer response during the day when more volunteers are at work.  Volunteering is a fantastic way to give to your community and daytime volunteers are your community’s biggest need.  Stop by the fire station any time for a tour or to see how you can help your community.
