TAX RATE NOTICE:  BURNET COUNTY ESD NO. 8 ADOPTED A TAX RATE THAT WILL RAISE MORE TAXES FOR MAINTENANCE AND OPERATIONS THAN LAST YEAR’S TAX RATE 

____________________________________________________________________________________________________

On December 1, 2021, Northeast Burnet County Fire Rescue (NBCFR) met the requirements and obtained an Insurances Services Office (ISO) Class 8B/10 rating. With the recent advancements made by the department, they are preparing their application to reduce the rating to a Class 6. 

What this means for the community is lower insurance rates. The lower the rating the larger the discount you may receive on your homeowners insurance. If you live within 5 road miles of one of the three NBCFR fire stations (Oakalla, Briggs or Watson) please download the State Fire Marshal's Classification Certification (attached below) and provide it to your insurance agent to receive the discount. 

Fire Station Locations:
Station 1  Oakalla  29111 FM 963 Briggs, TX 78608
Station 2  Briggs: 2285 US-183 Bertram, TX 78605
Station 3  Watson: 21200 FM 963 Lampasas, TX 76550
