Fire Inspections

The Ontario Fire Marshal Emergency Management (OFMEM) mandates that every municipality in the province have a Fire Prevention Program to keep people safe from potential fire threats. Inspection frequency varies depending on the occupancy type, but all fire inspections include:

File search
Travel
Site visit
Orders
Re-inspection
Safety Plan Review

Regular inspections, testing and maintenance make for safer working and living environments for everyone in our community.
