==History==
The roots of the Cosumnes Community Services District Fire Department date back to 1893. Following a series of disastrous fires that destroyed all but two buildings on Main Street, a small group of dedicated volunteers formed the Elk Grove Fire Department with their fund-raising events and a single hose cart. The all-volunteer Galt Fire Protection District was formed in 1921. The Cosumnes CSD Fire Department is the product of two mergers. The first in 1985, combined the Elk Grove Fire Department with one of the oldest park districts in the State, the Elk Grove Parks and Recreation District (established in 1936). The merger resulted in the Elk Grove Community Services District (CSD). The second merger occurred in 2006 when the Elk Grove CSD merged its fire services with the Galt Fire Protection District. and became the Cosumnes CSD.
