Emergency Assistance

An emergency may include a fire, medical emergency, vehicle accident, hazardous condition, smoke or gas odor, downed power line, or any situation where there is an immediate threat to life or property.

Fire Safety and Prevention

Fire safety begins with awareness and preparation. Residents are encouraged to maintain working smoke detectors, review escape plans with family members, use caution with heating equipment, and report unsafe conditions when they are noticed.

Simple steps, such as checking smoke alarm batteries, keeping exits clear, and being careful with outdoor burning, can help reduce the risk of fire and protect the community.

Outdoor Burning and Safety Concerns

Residents should follow all applicable village rules and state regulations related to outdoor burning, open flames, and fire safety. Before burning, residents should confirm whether burning is permitted and whether any restrictions are in place.

Concerns about unsafe burning, smoke, or other fire hazards should be reported through the proper emergency or non-emergency contact method.

Community Service

In addition to emergency response, the Fire Department is an important part of the community. Firefighters may assist with public safety education, community events, storm response, and other situations where their training and equipment can help protect residents.

The department’s service reflects the strong community spirit that makes Powhatan Point a close-knit village.
