Charge

The Fire Division, under the direction of the Fire Chief, is charged with the responsibility for fire suppression within the City of Auburn as well as on Auburn University Campus. They also provide rescue services and make inspections of existing buildings as part of their pre-fire plan program. This program familiarizes the firefighters with the floor plan and potential hazards in an existing building in case of an emergency. They conduct fire drills at all area schools as well as dorms and fraternities at Auburn University. There are currently five fire stations in Auburn.
