Oak View Faces Fire Risk Without Local Protection
Oak View residents confront a major fire threat as about a thousand families lack in-town fire protection. A recent blaze on Moffitt Street destroyed one home, nearly another, prompting calls for the Oak View Fire Protective Association to raise funds for a local fire truck and equipment. The county has offered a $5,000 loan toward a truck, but housing and upkeep remain unresolved. The community weighs joining Archdale’s protection or petitioning High Point for city inclusion, with time running amid ongoing fundraising shortfalls.
