GENERAL INFORMATION
Fire Department Profile
The City of Batavia Fire Department serves a community population of 16,256 situated in approximately 6 square miles. The Fire Department employs sixty-one (61) full-time employees that are split between two (2) divisions: Fire Division and Medical Division. Community service is delivered from three (3) stations within the City limits; Evans, Bank and North Street.
Our community and citizens benefit from a Insurance Services Office (ISO) public protection classification of three (3). The Fire Department's fleet consists of three (3) engines, one (1) ladder, six (6) transporting ambulances, one (1) emergency support unit, and one (1) command vehicle.

The City of Batavia Fire Department has been organized and providing customer service to our citizens and the traversing public since 1915. In 1986 the City of Batavia purchased the Fire Department's first ambulance to operate as a back up rescue squad. Since that time the Department has progressed to a full Advanced Life Support (ALS) provider serving the City and Town of Batavia in a primary capacity and the County of Genesee in a secondary capacity. The City of Batavia manages a Medical Billing Unit for the purpose of recovering costs from the treatment and transport of the sick and injured.

The Fire Department is a recognized Course Sponsor under the guidance of the New York State Department of Health and a certifying partner with the National Safety Council. These two (2) partnerships allow for delivery of emergency medical technician (EMT), first aid, and cardiopulmonary resuscitation training (CPR) to citizens and career and volunteer firefighters.
