[Survey Closed] Share Your Perspective on the Future Identity of Our Fire District

The Fire District Identity survey closed on August 27, 2026.

Thank you to everyone who took the time to participate in the Fire District Identity Survey!

More than 1,000 community members, employees, and community partners shared their perspective on the future public identity of our merged fire district.

Now that the survey has closed, the responses will be reviewed and analyzed. Findings will be presented to the Board of Fire Commissioners at its September 28 meeting to inform the Board’s future discussions and decision-making.

Following that meeting, survey findings and information about next steps will be available.

Central Pierce Fire & Rescue is seeking feedback from community members, employees, and community partners about the future identity of the merged fire district.

In January 2026, Central Pierce Fire & Rescue, Graham Fire & Rescue, and Orting Valley Fire & Rescue merged into one organization. As the district continues moving forward following the merger, the Board of Fire Commissioners wants to better understand how the organization should be represented in the future.

When we say “identity,” we mean how the fire district is represented to the public through its name, logo, and connection to the communities it serves.

We Want to Hear From You

The Fire District Identity Survey asks participants to consider three possible approaches for the future:

• Keep the current name and logo.
• Keep the current name and update the logo and visual appearance.
• Adopt a new name and new logo.

Participants will also be asked about their perceptions of the current organization, the reasons behind their preferred approach, and the priorities they believe should guide future decisions.

No decisions have been made. The purpose of this survey is to gather feedback and better understand employee and community perspectives before any future decisions are considered.
