The old station, at the corner of Black Forest and Shoup, is still in service. The fire trucks inside must be able to leave at any moment.
If a car is blocking the garage doors, the fire department may have no choice but to have that vehicle towed.
When you see one of our ambulances or fire engines with all its lights on, please pull over to the right as far as you safely can. That simple step helps us quickly get to the people who need help, and keeps us all safer on the road.
Help us to help you! If you ever need an ambulance, one of these simple forms can save time and improve your care.

We've been getting some welcome afternoon rain, but it only takes a few hot hours to dry the grass enough to burn.
Black Forest firefighters have responded to several fires already this year, one recently in the Forest. And this shouldn't surprise anybody. Wildfire is a natural feature of this area, just as hurricanes are natural on the coasts.
Your firefighters will do our very best to protect lives and homes, but we can't do the job alone. Every Black Forest household must get prepared to survive a wildfire. It's easier than you think to get started!
