People that reside and operate businesses in the fire district area pay for fire protection through dues that are assessed on an annual basis. These dues, along with public and private donations/grants fund the operation and capital needs of the fire department. West Pulaski Fire Department is a non-profit organization (501(c)3) with good fiscal management that works to continually improve services and capabilities within our budgeted revenue. WPFD provides services in a district located in non-incorporated areas in Pulaski, Saline, and Perry Counties.
