Welcome to the City of Lowell Fire Department Website
Lowell Fire Department was founded as an all-volunteer department in 1973. The department has evolved to what is now a full-time department staffed 24/7 with 27 sworn firefighters. Operational services provided include fire suppression, fire investigation, fire prevention, and community education programs, emergency extrication, and paramedic-level emergency medical response and transport. These services are provided using state of the art apparatus, rescue, and fire / EMS equipment. The department currently operates from two fire stations. We serve an area of 27 square miles with a population of approximately 13,000 residents. We respond to 1000 – 1100 calls annually.
