Township Trustee Services


Indiana Township Trustees are front‑line local officials who provide essential services that keep families safe, housed, and supported — often during their most difficult moments.


Fire Protection Services


One of the key responsibilities of the Township Trustee is ensuring fire protection and EMS coverage for residents living in unincorporated areas of St. John Township.


How We Provide This Service


  • Funding Local Fire Departments — The Township allocates resources to support township fire departments that serve our unincorporated areas.
  • Contracting with Fire Departments — The Township secures contracts with nearby fire departments to guarantee reliable, timely emergency response.


These efforts ensure that every resident in unincorporated St. John Township has access to dependable fire and EMS services.
