If Port Townsend is annexed into Jefferson County Fire District 1 – more commonly known as East Jefferson Fire Rescue – property taxes for a $300,000 city home would go up by at least $60. The annexation into the fire district would apply only to firefighting and emergency medical services. The possible increase in property taxes for city residents was one of several topics discussed at the second town hall meeting about the fire annexation process, on March 29.
