Fire Safety Unit

The Fire Safety Unit provides support to the Fire Operations Division by administering and coordinating pre-fire and disaster planning, engine company business inspections,  and Knox box installation programs. This Unit also conducts fire safety plan reviews, state initiated inspections for business license renewal, citizen complaint follow-ups, and monitoring nightclub activity during special events.

Fire code enforcement is a necessary function to insure that the health and safety of the public is maintained through adherence of codes and requirements established by federal, state, county, and city law in the construction and use of every building within the city.
