PUBLIC PROTECTION SUMMARY REPORT
ISO RATING FOR THE CITY OF VALLEY GRANDE
Class 6
Insurance Services Office, Inc. (ISO) collects and evaluates information from communities in the United States on their structure fire suppression capabilities. They analyze the data using the Fire Suppression Rating Schedule (FSRS) and then assign a Public Protection Classification (PPC) number to the community. The surveys are conducted whenever it appears that there is a possibility of a classification change.
Due to the exemplary job of the Volunteer Fire Departments within the City of Valley Grande, ISO has issued a PPC rating of 6 for the entire City. Valley Grande's rating was also due to the fact that all residents have a five mile access to fire stations across the city.
Residents are urged to contact their insurance companies regarding this new rating. Some residents have reported as much as a 50 percent decrease in cost of homeowners insurance due to the improvements made in fire protection throughout Valley Grande.
