WANTED by Klickitat 9: We are a district with service area population of 110, yet 138 square miles to protect. This is complicated by State Route 14 running through the district.

Over the last several years the traffic on SR 14 has increased as has our need for more equipment with more capabilities. The commissioners of District 9 would like to get in contact with larger departments that may be upgrading equipment, and thus ready to purge some of their older equipment.
The following is a list of what we feel are our greatest needs at this time.
