ISO RATING

6/1/2013

Stones-Bengard Community Service District is pleased to inform the community that ISO, Insurance Service Office, Inc., has completed the Public Protection Classification report and findings.  The community classification is CLASS 6/9.    

This means that properties within five (5) miles of a recognized fire station and within 1,000 feet of a fire hydrant or alternate water supply received a Class 6.

Properties beyond 1,000 feet of a fire hydrant but within five (5) road miles of a recognized fire station received a Class 9.

We appreciate the time and effort that Chief Ron Cromer and his team put in to accomplish this rating.  There is a lot of testing to be performed and paper work required to acquire or change an ISO rating.  This is an excellent rating for such a rural community.

Thank you Chief Cromer!
