FAQ Category: Fire Department
I had to use my fire extinguisher. Where can I get it refilled?
You may bring it by Fire Station number 1. We have someone from Columbus who comes by to service fire extinguishers. Or, we can provide you with a list of names of people and their phone numbers who service fire extinguishers.
We would like someone to come speak to our club/organization. Who do we talk to about this?
The Fire Inspector is also responsible for Public Education. Ask to speak to him.
My cat is in a tree. Will the Fire Department come get the cat down?
Contrary to anything previously seen on TV, the Fire Department does not remove cats from trees. They will come down by themselves.
Does the Fire Department check for gas leaks?
No. We will come stand by until the Gas Company arrives on the scene. Everyone needs to leave the area or the building if gas is detected until help arrives.
What do I need to do to get a job with the Fire Department?
Come by Station 1 and pick up an application. Fill it out and then return it to the Fire Department.
My house burned and the Fire Department put out the fire. My insurance company said I need to get a copy of the Fire Report. Where do I get a Fire Report?
If the West Point Fire Department responds to a fire where your property has burned, you may obtain a fire report at Station 1 on Brame Avenue.
What do I need to do to get a burning permit?
