Home Owner Survey

Submitted from Brent Mims, Fire Chief:

The Arrowhead fire department is working on better planning in case of a house fire here at Arrowhead. We are asking homeowners to fill out the Home Owners Survey to help increase resident and firefigher safety, as well as minimize property loss in the event of a fire. Once the form is filled out, the fire department will go to the home itself to get a better lay out of the property so we can decide how to attack the fire should it happen.

There are two options for filling out the survey. You can take a couple of minutes to fill out our online form and submit it with the click of a button, or you can download a pdf of the form, print it out, fill in the necessary information and deliver it to the fire department. (The online form is straight-forward and probably the quickest.)

Thank you for your help!

Emergency Contact Number:911

What to do in case of an emergency:
In the past we’ve asked that you call the fire department on our emergency line and then 911. That has changed. We now ask that you call 911 like you would do anywhere else in this country. Dispatch will then get an ambulance rolling if need be and then dispatch will notify us to assist you until the ambulance arrives. If it is a fire, or other emergency, we still ask that you call 911 who will then notify us immediately. If you need to contact the fire department for non emergency business please email Fire Chief Brent Mims.
