Fire & Emergency
FOR MEDICAL/LIFE THREATENING EMERGENCIES, PLEASE CALL 9-1-1
The unincorporated Oceano community receives fire and emergency services through the Five Cities Fire Authority (FCFA). The FCFA was created as a “joint exercise of powers authority” through an agreement approved in 2010 between the cities of Arroyo Grande, Grover Beach, and the OCSD.
In 2024, OCSD divested from the JPA, and in 2025, the OCSD fire code of ordinances was rescinded. The County of San Luis Obispo took over providing the same emergency services via FCFA. The OCSD does not control the operations of FCFA, and the financial statements and audit of FCFA are separate from those of the OCSD.
