Inspections
The Fire Division offers commercial and residential inspection services for all structures within the municipality.
Residential Inspections
Commercial and Business Inspections
The Fire Prevention Office performs routine and final occupancy inspections of all non-residential buildings in the City. This includes fire protection system (sprinklers, detectors, alarms, etc) components being modified, tested, or newly installed. Activities requiring a permit from the Fire Division include petroleum underground storage tank work, erection of tents over 120 square feet in area, designation of fire lanes, open burning, public display of fireworks, and operation of service stations.
The Division takes a proactive approach in the enforcement of the maintenance provisions of the fire code. All inspections are performed by state of Ohio certified fire inspectors, who enforce all city and state fire codes. The objective of these inspections is the elimination of fire and life safety hazards, the maintenance of fire protection/detection equipment and systems, assurance of the installation and functionality of means of egress components, and the safe storage and use of materials. Inspectors witness all the required inspections for the fire suppression permits issued by the City Department of Development, assuring compliance with the Ohio Basic Building Code.
