Message from the Chief of the Fire Department

I welcome you to the Farmington Fire Department’s Web Site. As Chief of the Fire Department I can attest that my personnel provide the highest quality of fire protection, prevention and education to our great community. The Farmington Fire Department responds to a variety of emergencies such as fires, cardiac emergencies, vehicle accidents, animal rescues, non-emergency assist calls and many other kinds of situations. As firefighters we take our training very serious. Continuing education is a must to stay on top of changing technology. Community involvement allows the fire department to interact with local businesses and other types of organizations in a positive manner.
