The Decatur Township Fire Department provides public safety services to approximately forty thousand township residents, in a thirty-three square mile area. In providing these services, Decatur Township Firefighters and Paramedics respond to over six thousand emergency runs each year.

The department is staffed with 62 paid professional firefighters and paramedics. We also have 6 part-time personnel that assist with staffing. These members respond from three stations distributed throughout the township.

Emergency apparatus includes three front line fire engines, one ladder, three ambulances, a tanker truck and various other support and reserve vehicles.

Department personnel are supported by a staff consisting of a fire chief, two deputy chiefs, and two administrative assistants, at our headquarters in the Decatur Township Government Center located at 5410 S. High School Rd.

In addition to emergency response, the department is very active in numerous public education and community service events throughout the township. We take great pride in being able to reach all school age children in the township with fire safety talks at least one time each year.
