Ventura Protective Association to transfer ownership

Published by admin on Thu, 11/07/2013 - 3:09am

The Ventura Protective Association and Ventura City Council have begun talks which will likely result in the transfer of ownership of the fire department July 1, 2014.

Ventura Fire Chief John Quintus explained the Protective Association, formed in 1946 and one of only a handful of private entities to offer fire service, cannot continue to survive due to growing financial demands.  Members of the group have voted to disband July 1, 2014.  The City of Ventura would begin ownership of the department at that time, the start of the fiscal year.
