Alfalfa Fire District

The Alfalfa Fire District has now filed its long-overdue 2022 Annual Comprehensive Financial Report (ACFR) with the Oregon Secretary of State, just days after reporting by the Prineville Review and KTVZ brought renewed attention to years of missing financial filings that had placed the district at risk of dissolution.

As proponents push to expand the Alfalfa Fire District’s boundaries farther east into Crook County to include the rural Juniper Acres area, records obtained by the Prineville Review show the district is once again facing possible dissolution over multiple years of missing financial reports — marking a repeating issue under Chief Chad LaVallee’s leadership requiring the State and County intervention over audit compliance.
