Emergency Services E EL DORADO COUNTY SHERIFF’S DEPARTMENT an part County, El AsDoradoitsunincorporatedDorado ofHillsEl receives primary law enforcement services from the El Dorado County Sheriff’s Office. (The California Highway Patrol handle traffic related activities.) Under the leadership of Sheriff Jeff Neves, the department’s personnel protects 1,805 square miles stretching from El Dorado Hills to South Lake Tahoe. l Dorado Hills Fire Department was formed in 1963 to protect approximately 10,500 acres and about 90 homes. The department now covers a district with more than 30,000 acres and 12,000 homes, giving the department an estimated population of 35,000 residents to serve and protect. The department moved into a new headquarters, Station 85, at 1050 Wilson Boulevard in January 2005. The 25,000-square-foot building was designed as a 50-year facility and houses station staff as well as the administrative offices. “We are continuing to expand to meet the needs as our community grows,” says Fire Chief Larry Fry. He also notes that he will be retiring in June this year, with Brian Veerkamp taking his place. The department is in the process of building a fourth station, Station 87, which ultimately will include a state-of-the-art regional training facility that will also be available to other fire departments and agencies throughout the region. This new station will serve the El Dorado Hills Business Park (which has more than 110 buildings totaling more than 2.5 million square feet), the businesses and residences south of Highway 50, and will help cover the rest of the district and other mutual aid agencies as needed. The station is anticipated to open in November 2007. The department is strongly connected to the community and provides many services to the residents including CPR training, Buckle Up Baby car seat installation and inspection, a life vest loaner program, the annual Santa Run (which helps provide food items to needy families) and a Bike Rodeo that promotes bicycle safety.
