Firefighter training takes place after several parties collaborate and
acquire structures for the trainings to take place in. When buildings
inside City limits are about to be demolished, the Fire Marshal will
make note of this, notify the Training Officer and try to acquire the
structure for training purposes. Most of these trainings are “dry,”
which means that there are no actual fires being lit at the time of
training. Before a structure can be burnt down for training purposes,
there is a long list of specifications from the state that the City must
comply with.
We Thank You
The City of Longwood and the Fire Department would like to thank those
who have allowed the department to use their locations as acquired
structures for training purposes. In doing this you have helped make our
community a safer place.
