Fire Prevention
Fire Prevention Branch services include:
- Annual Fire inspections on approximately 1500 businesses in the City and our fire protection areas.
- Fire hall tours to various schools, day-cares, and boys and girls clubs
- Fire safety lectures to various schools and businesses within the community.
- Fire Safety House Program, which provides all the grade three students in our area with the necessary skills to safely escape a house fire.
- Demonstrations on the safe handling and use of fire extinguishers.
Our Fire Prevention Branch, in conjunction with Canadian Tire, has provided all of the elementary schools in our area with the Learn Not to Burn program. This program is designed to teach children ranging from kindergarten to grade 3 how to safely react to and get out of a fire. This program is easily incorporated into the weekly lesson plans, and we hope that all of the teachers in the school district are providing their students this life saving information
