The fire district commissioners approved putting two propositions on the April 26 special election ballot.

Proposition 1 allows the fire district to sell $825,000 in bonds. The commissioners plan to use the money to build a new fire station in the southern portion of the fire district.

Property owners would pay 40 cents per $1,000 of assessed value more in property taxes to pay for the bonds.

Fire district 13 includes about 126 square miles around Ephrata, and operates out of one fire station.
