The Big Sky Resort Tax Funds have helped the Gallatin Canyon Consolidated Rural Fire District make the second of three payments on the fire engine with 6 wheel drive, a 1,000 gpm pump with pump-and-roll capabilities, and a compressed-air foam system that effectively extends water supply by five times. The engine carries 1,800 gallons of water, a full assortment of structure and wildland firefighting tools, and provides seating for 6 firefighters. The fire engine is designed to suppress both structural and wildland fires with all-season and off-road capabilities.

Also, the Resort Tax Funds aided the Fire District in making the first of three payments for the station addition for office space to adequately serve the community.

The final funds from Resort Tax were used to purchase a new ambulance to help the community of Big Sky and all those who visit with emergency medical needs.
