Introduction

The TNRD has entered into a five-year agreement with the City of Merritt to provide fire protection services to specific areas of Electoral Areas "M" & "N." The fire protection service area includes Lower Nicola, Miller Estates, the north end of Coldwater Road, and areas east of Merritt including Nicola Ranch and Harmon Estates.

To understand long-term priorities for property owners within this fire protection area, the TNRD has launched this short survey which is open until July 31, 2024. Respondents can be entered into a draw for one of three prizes:

1. $100 Gift Card to Home Hardware
2. $50 Gift Card to Purity Feed
3. FireSmart Prize Pack

Please note that this survey is for residents within the Electoral Areas "M" and "N" Fire Protection Service Area only. If you are unsure whether your address is in this service area, please contact TNRD Fire Protection Services at 250-377-6288 or fireprotectionservices@tnrd.ca.
