This is the official page of the Weaverville Volunteer Fire Department and Weaverville Fire District. Located in California.

The town of Weaverville was established in 1850. In the succeeding years, there were some devastating fires that destroyed most of the town. In April 1898 the County Supervisors appointed a three-member board to act as Fire Commissioners, and on April 12, 1898 the Fire District was established. The District enacted Ordinance #1 which put into effect controls regarding stoves, stove pipes, furnaces, and many other issues that pertained to fire safety. There was still no active talk of organized firefighting or of an official department. Equipment still consisted of the old firefighting bucket brigade. In September of 1905 another devastating fire served as a reminder that more needed to be done and in March of 1906, the Commission purchased a hand pumper engine, three hose carts, five hydrants, and some other equipment. Later that year a 40 member Volunteer Department was established and a Fire Chief, Foreman, Secretary, and Treasurer were elected. Thus, Weaverville Fire Protection District and Weaverville Volunteer Fire Department became two entities working together, as one, to provide the community of Weaverville with a fire service. Today the District, among other things, acts as the regulating agency and employs a full-time Fire Chief/Marshal to enforce such regulations. The Volunteer Fire Department is a registered 501c3 corporation and is responsible for the day to day business of responding to emergency calls.

September 2026 Stats and Review:

We ran a total of 44 calls-for-service in September making our year-to-date call total 492. Of the 44 calls we responded to, 5 were fire related, 23 medical-aids, 12 other public assists, and 3 false alarms. Some of these calls include mutual-aid responses out of the District including to the Lucas Fire.

Volunteers completed over 117+ person-hours of training. We trained on helicopter hoist operations, driver’s training, deck gun transitions and we pre-planned several commercial businesses. Members also did life-safety standbys at THS for football games and participated in several 9/11 commemorative ceremonies.
