3. HISTORY OF DISTRICT

The Monument Volunteer Fire Department (MVFD) was founded in the late 1930’s. In the mid1970’s, the developers of the Woodmoor Subdivision convinced the Town of Monument tocreate a full time, paid fire department which became the Woodmoor-Monument Fire ProtectionDistrict (WMFPD). The boundaries for the District were the same as the Woodmoor Water andSanitation District and the Monument Water Department. Thus, the area was protected with firehydrants.

The MVFD was renamed the Tri-Lakes Fire Protection District (TLFD) and served the area fromPike National Forest east to Highway 83 and from County Line Road south to the Air ForceAcademy and Baptist Road.

For many years, the TLFPD operated out of an old donated metal building at 18650 Highway105. In the late 1990’s, the Board made the decision to build a new station on the sameproperty.

The District offered a full range of emergency services, including ambulance service to theWMFPD. Population growth in the late 1990’s and the early 2000’s enabled the TLFD tobecome a combination paid and volunteer department. As the District grew, another fire stationbecame necessary to serve the eastern part of the District when the residents agreed toincrease their taxes. The station was built at 18460 Roller Coaster Road in 2004.

A merger between the WMFPD and the TLFPD had been discussed for years; as separation ofthe two Districts made little sense. Thus, in 2004, the two Boards signed an agreement forminga Regional Fire Authority on Jan. 1, 2005. The biggest advantage of the Authority was theimproved level of emergency response to serve the greater territory. Operationally, the threestations became on department, but had three different Boards of Directors. Finally, the Tri-Lakes Monument Fire Protection District (TLMFPD) was born on Jan. 1, 2008 with all paidcareer firefighters.

Today, the Tri-Lakes Monument Fire Protection District stands proud in protecting the citizens ofthe greater Tri-Lakes region.
