Fire Station 27 was built in 1952 to serve the unincorporated areas near Fillmore and the central Santa Clara Valley. The station is located in the City of Fillmore and is a cooperator with that city’s fire department. The USFS calls this station home during their summer and fall fire season stationing a pumper there during the daylight hours. Before the significant flood control work on nearby Sespe Creek, the Fillmore Fire Station was flooded on several occasions.

Station 27 operates as a Rescue/Engine. The Engine and Rescue operate together to provide Support Company operations the same as a Truck Company, or as an Engine Company. In 2004, one of the Firefighter positions became a Paramedic/Firefighter creating the Departments first Medic/Rescue/Engine.
Station 27 is staff daily by four Firefighters and has a 2002 American La France pumper (Engine 27); 2006 Ford Crewcab (Rescue 27); and 1997 KME 1,800 gallon water tender (Water Tender 27).
