The Fire Department conducts annual fire inspections of buildings to ensure the safety of those residents who visit or occupy them. Fire inspectors specifically enforce the 2000 International Fire Code. They perform inspections of commercial businesses and multi-family dwellings and if needed, cite violations and draft permit applications. Re-inspections also are done to verify compliance to previously noted violations of businesses or multi-family dwellings.

For additional information on fire inspections, please contact the Fire Prevention Division at (816) 784-9100.
