Emergency Services District No. 1
An Emergency Services District (ESD) is a local government agency created by a vote of the public to provide fire protection and/or emergency medical services (EMS) in specific areas in unincorporated Walker County. There are more than 310 ESDs in Texas, 3 of which are in Walker County. The governing statute for an ESD is Chapter 775 of the Texas Health and Safety Code. An ESD collects taxes based on appraisals of real and personal property and usually contracts with a service provider (e.g. Thomas Lake Road Volunteer Fire Department).
