Welcome to the Harrison Township Fire Department website. We consider it a privilege to serve the citizens, businesses and visitors of our community in what we believe to be the most honorable of all professions. As the Executive Fire Officer for Harrison Township, I am proud of our reputation as an organization that values our citizens as customers of the services we provide.
Each year our firefighters and paramedics touch the lives of thousands of people who call upon us for assistance. Whether experiencing the devastation of a fire, the tragedy of an injury or illness, or the aftermath of a manmade or natural disaster, our citizens deserve the very best each and every time we respond.
Response however, is but one part of the equation. The best method for reducing risk to our community is through education and awareness. The more you know about keeping you and your family safe, the better chance you have of preventing a tragedy.
I hope that as you navigate this site, you will gain not only an overview of our organization, but a heightened awareness of community and personal safety. I invite you to share in our passion for making your community a safer place to live, work and play.
Yours for a Fire Safe Community,
Carl W. Seitz, Fire Chief
