35-9-201. Applicability; powers of districts generally.
This act shall apply to a fire protection district created under the provisions of this act or under the provisions of article 1, chapter 45, Wyoming Compiled Statutes, 1945, as amended. Such fire protection district is hereby authorized to provide protection from fire and other public safety emergencies for all persons and property within its boundaries, and to contract, including mutual aid agreements, to give or receive such protection to or from one (1) or more other municipal corporations, other fire protection districts, private organizations or individuals. No fire protection district is liable for damages to persons or property resulting from the operation or presence of fire fighting equipment outside the district boundaries pursuant to an agreement or contract under this section. Entry into an agreement or contract pursuant to this section does not create a new or reorganized taxing entity as provided in W.S. 39-13-104(m).
