    Verde Valley Fire District            

    Cottonwood AZ (March 29, 2017) – Selected by his colleagues Dave McIlvoy is VVFD’s Firefighter of the Year 2017.

    David V. Mcilvoy. Started his Fire Fighter career in 2001 with Cornville\Page Springs Fire which later merged with Verde Rural Fire to become Verde Valley Fire.

    Beyond his professional skills as a Firefighter and EMT Dave has taken on extra responsibility as a member of our fire district. 

    20170329_vvfdDave is a member of the Life And Fire Safety (LAFS) program for several years.  His dedication is a very important part of our district as it teaches young children about fire and home safety.  Dave’s skills leave a lasting impression upon the young Children in ways that normal class sessions cannot.

    In addition, Dave stepped up his responsibilities by serving as our district’s Fire Marshall. This position is vital to the well being of our communities’ safety, as well as our Firefighters.  This achievement was only possible through his dedicated time of classes, education, and research.

    Even though Dave no longer fills this classification he continued to put in time to assist Deputy Chief /Fire Marshall Moore even after he stepped out of the Fire Marshall position in order to make the transition through our consolidation as smooth as possible. 

    Firefighter McIlvoy has given many years of service to the community that we serve.  This service goes beyond Fire and EMS services, behind the scenes he is always available to assist our residents with whatever their needs are, from helping them with yard work to bringing food on their table and everything in between. These actions show his true character.  He utilizes what he learns, takes his life experiences, and shares as a mentor to others

    Dave, thank you for your hard work and dedication to our community, and congratulation from the entire Verde Valley Fire District family.

    No Legal Traction on OHVs
    By Tommy Acosta
    In the upcoming fight between the city and companies that rent Off Highway Vehicles, the city is going to lose. Simply put, the city has no jurisdiction over state-owned highways. Period. It can manage its own streets and pass ordinances to promote public safety on them, but it can do nada to ban OHVs on S.R.179 or S.R. 89A. Who remembers the fight over dark skies and the light poles on S.R.89A? ADOT had its way no matter how hard the opponents fought. It’s the same here. Can one really believe that Polaris, with outlets across the country, would allow a precedent to be set where municipalities can ban OHVs on state-owned highways that run through their cities? The answer is a resounding “hell no.” Read more→
