Does a Volunteer Fire Department qualify for the same rate as a City, County or District?
Yes, on trucks and stations. Per Section 150 (e) of the IRS Code, independent fire companies qualify for tax-exempt rates on their purchase of fire trucks or fire station construction (new or remodel). However, equipment such as SCBAs, turnout gear, rescue tools, compressors, ambulances, and buildings not used for fire-fighting purposes, would not qualify. They do qualify for our nonprofit rates, which are lower than standard commercial rates.
