Fire Report: Reports take a minimum of one working business day to process. Please call our office number in advance to verify when a report can be made available. Copies of reports may be picked up at the chief’s office during regular business hours. Copies of reports dated less than a year old are free; to receive a copy of a report dated over a year will require a $10.00 processing fee.
Fire Prevention Program: Our program has been well received and has also been credited with saving lives. Each October our fire prevention team attempts to visit all of our middle and elementary schools within the city limits. We also receive requests from many other schools and agencies for our program. We attempt to accommodate every school that we can but unfortunately due to staffing, firefighter training schedules, and budget restraints we may be unable to participate.
Due to the threat of severe weather, all non-essential city services will be closed on Friday, March 18, 2022. The City will continue to monitor the situation and depending on the severity of the event may make further changes to hours of operation.

Residents are encouraged to stay informed and take proper precautions. Please stay off roadways as conditions, power lines, and/or trees may be impacted.
