May , 2010 The Three Rivers LOA's Fire station land grant ballots were sent to a mailing list consisting of 616 property owners to decide whether or not Three Rivers Land Owners Association should become "Grant Partners" with the Three Rivers Rural Fire Protection District in the construction of a new fire station. In order for the RFPD to obtain the grants needed to construct a new fire station in a more centrally located area, they would need to own the land. The question was whether Three Rivers should grant a 3.23 acre parcel (RMV $112,000) to the RFPD in order to expedite their plans. It should be noted that Three Rivers would gain a tax deductible donation in this amount which would be a tax reduction for the Association, while providing the necessary cost sharing needed to attract federal dollars and grants.
On April 29, 2010 seven people gathered to count the ballots.
A total of 1002 ballots were counted, which constitutes 81.3% of the ballots sent out.
