When the 911 system was implemented in Woodbury County in 1992, residents had a choice of which fire department they wanted to respond to their fires. Prior to this, fire protection in Oto Township was going to the Oto Fire Department.  However, due the 911 system, many residents chose the Danbury Fire Department to provide their fire protection due to their close proximity to Danbury.

The Results of that survey can be seen here
