YREKA FIRE AWARDED $15,000 FOR NEW RADIO EQUIPMENT

The Yreka Fire Department has received a $15,000 grant for new radio equipment courtesy of the California Fire Foundation. These radios will be placed into service immediately and will replace 20 year old radios which are now obsolete and unable to be repaired. The Yreka Fire Department extends heartfelt thanks to the California Fire Foundation for this generous amount. This equipment will allow the firefighters to operate safely and efficiently going forward.

If you hear sirens in the area, electrical contractors are currently performing work at Carnegie Hall. There is no cause for concern.

Welcome Marquis Smith!

Marquis was recently hired by the City of Yreka to serve as a full time, paid Captain in the Yreka Fire Department. Marquis has approximately 24 years of experience in the fire service with the majority of those years spent with Mt. Shasta Fire Department, where he also served as a Captain prior to joining YFD. He is quiet but energetic, has a great work ethic and is a great addition to the staff!

Over the next few months, YFD plans to hire additional personnel so there are firefighters maintaining 24/7 coverage at Ley Station
