Our Mission

IT IS THE MISSION OF THE BRIARCLIFF MANOR FIRE DEPARTMENT TO PRESERVE LIFE AND PROPERTY IN THE VILLAGE AND SURROUNDING AREAS

RECENT NEWS & EVENTS

Places of Public Assembly

Every day, millions of people wake up, go to work or school, and take part in social events.  But every so often the unexpected happens: an earthquake, a fire, a chemical spill, an act of terrorism or some other disaster.  Routines change drastically, and people are suddenly aware of how fragile their lives and routines can be.  Each disaster can have lasting effects — people may be seriously injured or killed, and devastating and costly property damage can occur. People entering any public assembly building need to be prepared in case of an emergency

Daylight Savings Time Begins

The Fire Chief would like to remind everyone that this Sunday (3/13) we set our clocks ahead one hour (Spring Ahead).  Also, it is the time to replace the batteries in your Smoke Detectors and Carbon Monoxide Detectors. 

Cigarette Smoking

The place where we feel safest — at home — is where most smoking-materials structure fires, deaths, and injuries occur.
