Your EMS Dollars at Work
Learn how the Valley Countywide EMS District is funded, how the annual budget is developed and how public funds support emergency medical services across Valley County.
The Valley Countywide EMS District is primarily funded through a voter-approved property-tax levy. Each year, the Board of Commissioners determines how much revenue is needed to provide countywide ambulance service, develops a proposed budget and holds a public hearing before adopting the final budget. The levy rate is then calculated using the adopted budget and the total taxable property value within the district, so the rate may vary from year to year.
Current Budget
The District’s FY2026 budget is approximately $4.3 million, funded primarily through property-tax revenue. About $3.56 million is allocated equally among the McCall, Donnelly and Cascade fire districts to provide ambulance staffing and response services. The remaining funding supports administration, professional services, operational expenses, equipment and ambulance replacement, and reserves.
