From Times Staff Reports
City fire officials announced Thursday they would consolidate the department’s fire and rescue dispatch operations with those of the Ventura County Fire Protection District.
Under the agreement, the county fire district will provide emergency dispatch services for Santa Paula, while the city’s department will help the county respond to incidents in nearby unincorporated areas.
The consolidation takes effect July 10, leaving Oxnard as the only city in the county that has not consolidated its fire dispatch services with the county.
