The Glendale Fire Department has been providing service to our community for 100 years.  We are fortunate that residents continually support our firefighters, paramedics, community educators, crisis response team and administrative staff. 

Recently, this was most prevalent as voters chose to keep a temporary sales tax in place in an effort to continue numerous programs and services citywide.  We are grateful for the support the community showed to all members of our public safety family… both fire and police.

It always has been and will continue to be the priority of the Glendale Fire Department to serve the community with excellent customer service and with the utmost care and compassion.

The Glendale Fire Department provides a top quality of life safety service that includes five core interactive services including: 

• Fire Prevention and Education ~ Public Education, Inspections, Investigations and Code Adoption
• Fire Suppression ~ Firefighting
• EMS ~ Advanced Life Support and Basic Life Support
• Special Operations ~ Hazardous Materials and Technical Rescue
• Crisis Response  ~ Social Services

These services offered by Glendale Fire are guaranteed by using:  The Automatic Aid system, Intergovernmental Agreements with surrounding agencies, public/private partnerships, a pool of dedicated, highly skilled firefighters, and a proven track record of quality service from public venues to individual residents.

We appreciate the support and trust of the residents and visitors we serve, and will continue to serve you with the highest level of care.

Always at your service,

Mark Burdick
Fire Chief
