Fire Prevention

Fire Prevention is the responsibility of everyone in the community. The department proactively works to prevent fires by identifying and removing potential fire hazards. We also educate and assist property owners in making their homes and business as safe as possible.

Fire Safety Inspections ensure that fire safety requirements are met.

Plan Review makes sure that new construction meets current fire safety codes. We also review remodeling and tenant improvement projects.

Fire Code Development helps our community to maintain the highest standards for our fire codes.

Fire Investigation determines the causes of fires, so that fire prevention methods can be improved, or in the case of criminal intent, bring the perpetrators to justice.
