Congratulations to - Lieutenant Cerda, Lieutenant Sauter, Engineer Wells, Firefighter Mehringer, and Firefighter Jackson! Earlier this week they were recognized by the Oregon Fire Chiefs Association for their extraordinary actions during a single-family dwelling fire in August 2025 and received a Unit Citation for demonstrating exceptional teamwork during the critical incident. Way to go, Team!

UNIT CITATION

A Unit Citation is a prestigious award given to a group of responders; and in this case members from two separate crews for demonstrating exceptional teamwork in the event of a critical incident. The purpose of a Unit Citation is recognizing extraordinary performance by a group, rather than one individual.

For a high-stakes rescue at a single-family dwelling fire in August of 2025, the members listed below were awarded a Unit Citation.

Congratulations and a job well done to Lieutenant Cerda, Lieutenant Sauter, Engineer Wells, Firefighter Mehringer, Firefighter Jackson!

Thank you for representing Local 2210 so well.

The Oregon International Air Show is coming to town this weekend, May 15-17! Remember, there will be road closures and restricted access near Hillsboro Airport during the event. Follow Hillsboro Police Department for road closure details and safety information.

Traffic Alert: 2026 Oregon International Air Show Road Closures & Safety Notice

The 2026 Oregon International Air Show is coming to town May 15–17! To ensure the safety of all spectators and community members, a sterile aerobatic box (an area that must remain clear of all people) will be enforced during flight demonstration hours.

Road Closure Hours (Sterile Aerobatic Box Area):
• Friday, May 15: 11:00 AM – 3:45 PM & 6:00 PM – 10:00 PM
• Saturday & Sunday, May 16–17: 11:00 AM – 5:00 PM

Areas Affected:
• NE Brookwood Pkwy:
No traffic between NE Airport Rd and NE Cornell Rd during closure times. NE Penny Way & NE “T” Hangars are restricted during closure times. Only Nike and Ochoco tenants with passes may access hangars. Roads to businesses on or west of NE Brookwood Pkwy from NE Dawson Creek to NE Airport Rd are restricted but not fully closed. QORVO’s south entrance on Penny Way will be closed during all sterile area hours.
• NE 30th Ave & NE Sewell Rd on NE Evergreen Rd:
Restricted to business tenants only. Hillsboro Aviation tenants are cleared to travel to business with the pass. The Hillsboro Airport side of NE Sewell Rd is closed to all traffic.

Please refrain from flying drones. Unauthorized drone use violates federal regulations and compromises air safety by disrupting the sterile aerobatic box required for performances. We appreciate the community’s support and cooperation in keeping this event safe and successful for everyone. Please plan ahead and use alternate routes as needed. Thank you!

Today, Capt. Livesey and Station 6 firefighters, joined by Fire & Rescue leadership, Truck 5, Engine 9, and staff from the City of Hillsboro - Local Government Fleet Services, celebrated the in-servicing of the newest engine to serve our community. The Transfer of the Axe, engraved with the date the station opened and all the front-line apparatus that came before this one, commemorates the transition from the old to the new.
