The GRFD district covers three communities: Oro Valley, Catalina and Saddlebrooke. Thus, voters in these communities, communities that have a far different set of interests that Oro Valley residents, will also be voting on the bond offering.

GRFD has grown through annexation and merger
"The geographical boundaries of the District have expanded through annexations and a joint merger with the Catalina Fire District and Oracle Junction Fire District and in July 2017; and consolidation with the Mountain Vista Fire District."
"The 2010 Census data estimates 60,000 residents within the District and this is supported by a land-ownership report that estimates nearly 82% of the 31,000 parcels are for residential use."
