Miami Township Division of Fire/EMS

MIAMI TOWNSHIP DIVISION OF FIRE AND EMS WOULD LIKE TO REMIND ALL MIAMI TOWNSHIP RESIDENTS AND GUESTS TO THINK SAFETY THIS HOLIDAY WEEKEND. The U.S. Consumer Product Safety Commission's new Chairman, Inez Tenenbaum, urged families today to put safety first during the Fourth of July holiday and celebrate with caution when it comes to fireworks. The latest report (PDF) from CPSC indicates that there were reports of seven fireworks-related deaths and an estimated 7,000 hospital emergency room treated injuries in 2008. In 2007, CPSC had reports of eleven deaths and an estimated 9,800 injuries.

Welcome from Interim Chief Matthew Queen

I would like to welcome you and personally thank you for taking time to visit our website. We hope you will find it not only helpful, but educational as well. The Miami Township Division of Fire/EMS strives to provide outstanding emergency and non-emergency services available. The entire staff works tirelessly and has the utmost commitment for the safety of the residents and guests who travel through Miami Township on a daily basis. I am very proud of the dedicated men and women who provide this very important service to the community. Located at four locations, fire suppression and medical companies ensure their equipment is in a constant state of readiness. When those companies are not answering calls for service, they are responsible for conducting daily training drills, performing fire prevention and public education activities. They also conduct fire hydrant inspections, perform child car seats installations and maintain all equipment necessary to perform the jobs. As we move forward and look to the future, it is a critical time for the fire division as we work towards the possible formation of a Joint Fire District with the City of Miamisburg Fire Department. While the future is uncertain, the obstacles and challenges that lay ahead for the fire division are numerous. The drive and motivation to meet and surpass them are unmatched. I look forward in assisting the fine men and women of our organization in the continual pursuit of customer and public service. Our door is always open, please never hesitate to call. Warmest Regards,

Matthew Queen

Interim Fire Chief, BS, OFE
