Since its formation, it has taken the fire department from an all 'volunteer' department to paid stand-by, and finally to it's first career positions. The department is a not-for-profit corporation under the guidelines set forth by the State of Indiana and 501(c) of the Internal Revenue Code. The District contracts with the Fire Department to provide emergency services to it's response area of approximately 30,000 people from its three stations. The district is the second-largest growing district in the state of Indiana, and the fastest in Johnson County.

The number of residential subdivisions grows continuously and plans are currently underway for two additional elementary schools.
