Fire Safety Inspection Program

For Business & Property Owners

Miami Township Fire-Rescue is launching a fire safety inspection pro-gram in Miami Township and the Village of Yellow Springs.

The Ohio Fire Code authorizes MTFR to inspect all properties except 1 & 2 family dwellings. One of MTFR's core responsibilities is fire prevention. A method used to reduce the number of fires and enhance life safety is to enforce fire code regulations; this is accomplished through a fire safety inspection program.

The goal of this program is to reduce the potential for fire, loss of life, and property damage. Our staff of state-certified fire safety inspectors will work cooperatively with business and property owners to identify hazards and work to repair them. By working together, we can assist you in making your business a safe place for your customers, employees, and you.

Fire safety inspections are conducted during an appointment set with the property or business owner or their representative. Unlike many communities, MTFR does not charge a fee for these inspections.

For more information regarding this program, contact Fire Inspector Chris Kitts or Chief Colin Altman at 767-7842.
