Lights and Sirens
Vermont law requires that drivers yield to emergency vehicles that are displaying red lights and using a siren. This applies to private vehicles operated by responding
firefighters and EMT's. Please pull to the right and stop. Failure to yield may delay our response and could cost you a fine and points on your drivers liscence.
Smoke Detectors
We still have several smoke detectors that were purchased by a grant. If your household includes children under 18, or
seniors over 65, please let us give you a free detector.
Address Signs
Vermont has an advanced E-911 system that can pinpoint the location of an emergency call.
We can locate most sites by matching the address with the mileage on a road, but encourage property owners to display
their number. We can provide green address markers for a small fee.
Snow and Ice
Can you open your front door? Remember to clear snow and ice from all doors. You might need to use
one for an emergency exit.
