The McKinney Fire Department, along with the Frisco, Plano, Lewisville and Prosper fire departments, has sent resources and personnel to California to battle wildfires.

The McKinney Fire Department sent a crew of four firefighters. Once the firefighters arrive in California they will be assigned to one of the two wildfires or to a local station covering for a crew already fighting the fire, Merit Ossian, McKinney Fire Department public information officer, told Community Impact Newspaper.
