On March 1, 2013, the City of Woodland began contracting services from Clark County Fire & Rescue for a period of 6 years.[2]
On April 28, 2015, a special election was held to determine if the Clark County Regional Fire Authority should be formed, comprising Fire Districts 2 & 11, and the City of Woodland. The measure was rejected by voters, with a combined 2,148 "yes" votes and 2,534 "no" votes.[3]

On August 4th, 2020, voters approved the annexation of the City of Woodland with a combined 10,748 "yes" votes and 3,108 "no" votes.[6] Due to the fact the City of Woodland is located in Cowlitz County and was annexed into Clark County Fire Protection District No. 11, state law requires that the districts name be changed to reflect the multi-county coverage.[7] In December of 2020, the legal name of Clark County Fire Protection District No. 11 was changed to Clark-Cowlitz County Fire Protection District No. 15, and the operating name of Clark County Fire & Rescue was changed to Clark-Cowlitz Fire Rescue.
