Lakeshore Fire Department

The Lakeshore Fire Department participates in a wide variety of Fire Prevention activities, with the goal of reducing fire occurrences throughout the community.

Fire Prevention has been adopted within the fire service as a key strategy of reducing human and fire loss. A combined approach is utilized by:

• Conducting Fire Inspections and,
• Liaisons with the community through Public Education in a variety of formats.

This continued effort and commitment will serve as a catalyst and demonstrate to the community as to the level of service that the Town of Lakeshore is providing to keep its citizens fire safe.

• Inspections of buildings, industrial establishments and residences
