Fire Prevention

The aim of fire prevention is to educate the public on how to take precautions to avoid potentially dangerous fires and to know how to survive them. This proactive approach helps prevent fire-related emergencies and reduces the damage they cause. The Morongo Valley Fire Department is responsible for implementing policies and programs that lessen the impact of emergencies and prevent or minimize the loss of life, property, and environmental damage. The Morongo Valley Fire Department will provide public education, ensure engineering compliance with the fire code during plan reviews, and enforce the fire code to achieve our goals.
