Welcome to the Community Outreach Division.

Led by Fire Marshal Steve Kropacek, who brings over 25 years of experience.

• Smoke Alarm Installation: Free smoke alarm installation and battery replacement programs for residents in need. Contact the Fire Marshal if you need a smoke alarm.

• Home Fire Safety Reviews: We provide in-home fire safety reviews to help you identify and correct potential hazards. Contact the Fire Marshal to schedule a home fire safety review.

Fire Prevention Safety Guidelines

• Home Fire Safety: Install smoke alarms in every bedroom, test them monthly, and create a fire escape plan.

• Workplace Fire Safety: Ensure fire extinguishers are accessible, maintain clear exit routes, and train employees on emergency procedures.

• Cooking Safety: Never leave cooking unattended, keep flammable materials away from stoves, and use timers to prevent overheating.

• Heating Safety: Keep space heaters at least three feet from flammable items and never leave them on when unattended.
