After this recent snow storm, between snowfall and plowing, many fire hydrants are buried. This makes them much harder to find and difficult to dig out when it's needed.

Help us help you.  When seconds count, looking for then digging our way to a fire hydrant takes time and energy - something that distracts us from our first priority - you, your home, and your loved ones. 

If you have a fire hydrant on your property, please take a few minutes to remove a 3 foot area of snow around the hydrant as well as a path to the road so that we can easily find and access it if needed.  

This also helps reduce ice that often forms around the hydrant.

It is also important to clear snow from walkways, driveways and any exterior steps on your property. Should an Ambulance be needed at your house, snow and ice covered driveways, walkways and steps can inhibit our ability to help you.

Thank you!
