Our Initiatives

Safe Staffing

When our community is in need, the professional firefighters represented by Five Cities Firefighters IAFF Local 4403 strive to deliver what our neighbors deserve: excellence in public safety. But your firefighters are hampered because there aren’t enough firefighters on the street to keep you safe.

At any time, a maximum of only three firefighters are on each fire apparatus responding to calls throughout our area, lower than the four recommended by national standards and safety experts. By supporting four firefighters on our apparatus, you’re investing in the safety of our entire community. Support public safety and help your local firefighters push for four firefighters on the apparatus.
