Firefighters at house with a fire.Code Enforcement

Career firefighters conduct periodic fire prevention inspections in all occupancies (except one- and two-family dwellings) within their response district. Buildings are inspected for the purposes of enforcing the fire and life safety regulations, familiarizing firefighters with the building and educating occupants in good fire safety practices.

Plan Review

The Plan Review Office ensures that submitted plans for new construction and renovation comply with current Codes. Upon completion of the building, an inspector will inspect the project to insure that final construction is in accordance with the Code.

Fire and Arson Investigation

The Fire Marshal and fire investigators are trained to investigate the cause of fires in the community. Fires determined to be suspicious or incendiary are jointly investigated with the assistance of our Police Department.
