Our goal is to provide the finest fire protection, rescue, emergency medical services and fire prevention services.
Our goal is to prevent fires and life-loss through the finest in fire protection, rescue, emergency medical services, and fire prevention services. We have five fire stations located throughout the City. The fire stations are staffed 24 hours a day/365 days a year. These stations house five fire engines, two ladder trucks, two ambulances, and a Command Vehicle. We have two reserve fire engines, one reserve ladder truck, and a reserve ambulance. The majority of our members are certified paramedics in addition to being firefighters.
Besides staffing two Advanced Life-Support Ambulances, every engine and ladder truck company is equipped with Advanced Life-Support equipment. This means as soon as an engine or ladder truck arrives, it can begin life-saving treatment even before the ambulance arrives.
Through the overall efforts of the City to support Fire and Life Safety Services, property owners enjoy insurance premium benefits of an Insurance Services Office (ISO) fire protection "Class 2" rating.
