The Portage Fire Division strives daily to make Portage a safer place to live, work and visit. We provide fire suppression, hazardous materials response, emergency medical and technical rescue, fire prevention, business and multi-family residential inspections, and commercial site and building plan reviews. The Fire Division also provides programs, station tours and presentations for schools and community groups.
