Mission & Responsibilities

The Lakewood Fire District is committed to providing fire services with the highest degree of efficacy. This includes the delivery of fire suppression, fire prevention and fire education services while at the same time exercising sound fiscal control and budgetary restraint.

The Fire Commissioners of the Lakewood Fire District are the translators of the Fire District’s overall commitment to excellence through the establishment as well as strict adherence to high standards of performance. This sets the tone and encourages those affiliated with the Fire District to continually strive to be the best in all aspects of service delivery by meeting or exceeding the expectations of the public they serve.

LAKEWOOD FIRE DEPARTMENT
The Lakewood Fire District is comprised of a combination volunteer and career fire department under the leadership of Chief Jonathan Yahr, Deputy Chief Steve Mulholland and Battalion Chief David Wolf who report to the Board of Fire Commissioners. The volunteer department was established in 1888 and has grown to include seven strategically placed fire stations. The volunteer firefighters respond to all General Alarms, requests for mutual aid, many and varied other emergencies, and as requested by the career firefighters. The career department fire stations are manned 24/7 and employ thirty-two career firefighters.  These firefighters work 24 hours on and 72 hours off schedule with two officers and six firefighters on duty each of four shifts. The career firefighters respond as first responders to all calls and are responsible to follow established protocols in requesting volunteer assistance as incidents dictate.
