<br />twenty-four (124) apartment units; that the area lies without the corporate
<br />limits of any municipality and there is no fire protection available within
<br />said area:
<br />TI
<br />It is impossible or impracticable to provide fire protection service
<br />on a county-wide basis in that three municipal fire depaztments presently
<br />exist in the county together with seven rural fire districts, and any effort
<br />to provide fire protection on a cour_ty-wide basis would seriously affect the
<br />operations of these established organizations, and the cost of county-wide
<br />£ire protection would be a great financial burden on the taxpayers of the
<br />county and the service would apply to azeas of the county that axe so sparsely
<br />populated as to not justify ox' need fire protection;
<br />ITI
<br />It is economically feasible to provide fire service in the district
<br />hereinafter described without unreasonable or burdensome annual tax levies
<br />in that the appraised value of the property within the proposed district
<br />is in excess of $5,680,00; (that an additional ad valorem tax levy of 30G
<br />per 5100.00 of property valuation would provide fire protection;)
<br />IV
<br />There is a demonstrable demand for fire protection within the area,
<br />which demand has been manifested by n merous property owners within the
<br />district petitioning the Board of County Commissioners to make fire protec-
<br />tion available within said azea.
<br />NOW, THEREFORE, HE IT RESOLVED, that the Boazd of Commissioners of
<br />Orange County does hereby define the following area as a service distxict

<br />as required by said statute; that the report required by General Statute
<br />1532.-302 was filed in accordance with the requirements of said statute.
<br />After considering all information presented at the public hearing and
<br />all other information available to the Board, the Board finds as a fact the
<br />following:
<br />I -
<br />That there is a demonstrable need for providing in the district herein-
<br />after described fire protection; that within said azea there aze approximately
<br />fifty (50) single family dwellings; that the area lies without the corporate
<br />limits of any municipality and there is no fire protection available within

<br />Iz
<br />It is impossible or impracticable to provide fire protection service on
<br />a county-wide basis in that three municipal Eire depaztments presently exist
<br />in the county together with seven rural fire districts, and any effort to provide
<br />fire protection on a county-wide basis would seriously affect the operations of
