Fire Prevention Bureau

Office of the Fire Marshal

The Fire Official is available for any major fire emergency call-out twenty-four (24) hours every day of the year.

The Fire Prevention Bureau has been established for the protection of life, property, the environment and to reduce economic impacts from fires and other related hazards. The Bureau has the responsibility of inspecting all structures, events, activities, and storage that require a permit, residential home resales and rentals, and apartments that are changing occupancy. The Bureau addresses all fire safety complaints, conducts origin and cause investigations for all fires as required by State law, inspects all structures on a periodic basis, conducts site plan review for new construction, and communicates any potential hazards to the Township’s Volunteer Fire Companies.
