What's Up in Stallion Springs?

 


Stallion Springs Fire Chief Jason Schillinger reminded the residents of the upcoming June 15 deadline for Hazard Reduction at the April 15 Board of Directors meeting.

Board president Dave Burt noted that the CSD is down to only four payments left on both the Police/Administration and Community Center and the Police/Administration buildings.

Payments are made twice a year so both buildings will be paid off in two years.
