 Our District
The
Lancaster Fire Department protects approximately 12,000 residents of
the Village
of Lancaster. Our
district is comprised of a mixture of residential, commercial, and
industrial properties. Four active rail lines dissect the Village,
along with two major state truck routes (Walden Avenue and Broadway). Five
elementary schools, one middle school, one high school, nine churches, Como Lake
Park, and the Lancaster Opera
House call the Village
of Lancaster
home.
The
Lancaster Fire Department provides fire, rescue, and emergency services
for the Village
of Lancaster and
mutual aid jurisdictions. Our Department provides secondary response to
EMS (emergency medical services)
requests when local ambulance resources are depleted.
Our
district borders Depew to the West, Town Line to the East, Twin
District to the South, and Bowmansville to the North.
Operating
out of two stations, the Lancaster Fire Department operates three
Engine Companies, one Ladder Company, one heavy rescue, two light
rescues, a boat, and fire prevention utility vehicle.
Proudly committed to saving
lives in the Lancaster
community since 1874.
