The Macon Fire Department was organized in 1872 and is made up of a combination of full time career and paid reserve firemen. We have 8 full time personnel in the capacity of a Fire Chief, Assistant Fire Chief, 2 Captains and 4 Engineer/Firefighters and we have 12 paid reserve firefighters. The Macon Fire Department has attained an ISO rating of class 4.
We have 3, 24 hours shifts with 2 men on duty and the eighth man picks up the vacation days and other days. The Fire Chief works Monday through Friday. At this time our primary job is fire education, fire inspections, and suppression.
We answer approximately 100 - 125 runs a year that includes everything from service calls (odors and citizen assists), vehicle accidents to commercial structure fires.
