The Fire Department counts on residents to keep hydrants clear of ice and snow in winter.
A house fire can double in size every minute so firefighters must access hydrants quickly to protect people, pets, and property.
- Clear snow 3 feet away from the hydrant in every direction.
- Clear a path to the street.
- Make sure firefighters can locate the hydrant easily and have space to work around it.
There may be a hydrant adjacent to your property or choose hydrants on the map below.
The Fire Department, the City, and your neighbors appreciate your help.
