Benton County Fire Protection District #2 operates under a collaborative leadership model, balancing governance, administration, and operations to best serve our community.

The District is overseen by a Board of Fire Commissioners, composed of three elected officials from the local community. These commissioners are elected by public vote to serve six-year terms and are responsible for setting the policy direction and strategic oversight of the Fire District.

Operational leadership is provided by the Fire Chief, Assistant Fire Chief, and a team of Shift and Day Captains. The Day Captains manage a range of administrative functions including policy implementation, legal compliance, resource management, and the coordination of daily emergency operations.

The Fire District is proudly staffed by a dedicated team of volunteer firefighters, supported by both career officers and leadership personnel. Together, they work to ensure effective, efficient, and responsive fire and emergency services for the residents of Benton County.

Emergency Communications

The Fire District is dispatched for emergency calls by a centralized 911 dispatch service called SouthEast Communications Center. SECOMM has an enhanced 911 service and a Computer Aided Dispatch (CAD).
