Sparwood renews fire protection with RDEK until end of year

Sparwood has signed an agreement with the RDEK that will ensure fire protection to a portion of Electoral Area A until the end of the year.

The previous agreement expired in December of 2024.

The signing will allow the fire protection to continue until Dec. 31, 2025.

The district and the RDEK are currently in the early stages of renegotiating a new five-year deal and that’s why this one ends at the end of 2025.

The payment for services for 2025 will be $83,874.
