Fairview Fire District
Fire districts have no Census population; per-capita figures are not calculated.
Flags
General fund spending (incl. transfers out) exceeded revenues (incl. transfers in) in 2024, 2025, and operating funds overall spent more than they took in in 2024, 2025 (last 3 AFR years). Planned use of fund balance can cause this; check the adopted budgets.
OSC tax cap filings: proposed levy exceeded the computed levy limit for FY 2026 (by $48,313, override planned). Exceeding the limit requires a local law override (60% of the governing body).

Five-year picture
Our calculation from OSC AFR account data: all funds except custodial (T*), capital projects (H), fixed-asset (K) and long-term debt (W) groups, excluding interfund transfers and debt proceeds.
OSC AFR, fund A, revenues and other sources minus expenditures and other uses (our calculation). Planned use of fund balance appears as a deficit.
