The cornerstone of any Fire Department is its Fire Prevention program. To prevent fires before they start is the primary goal. To accomplish this the Prevention Bureau provides fire and life safety education to all age groups. Investigation of all fires, including fire cause, helps to pinpoint problem areas that need to be addressed. The Bureau works closely with local law enforcement and the State Fire Marshal’s Office to bring persons who intentionally set fires to justice. The Inspection and Code Enforcement Program in union with the city building department ensures that buildings (new and old) are compliant with applicable fire codes. Prevention is the key to protecting all citizens from the horror of fire. |
