About Us
The Westminster Fire Department is comprised of 144 personnel, both commissioned and civilian. The executive command team includes a fire chief, two deputy chiefs, an EMS chief, fire marshal, training chief, emergency management coordinator, management analyst, executive assistant and three shift battalion chiefs to oversee the department. The department responds to over 12,000 calls a year. Almost 70 percent of those are medical related. The remainder of calls include response to fires, alarms, hazardous materials, rescues (water, technical, etc.) and public assists. Response time is typically under six minutes. You can learn more about our department operations and our statistics in our 2021 Annual Report as well as in our Standards of Cover.
Founded in 1934 as a one-station volunteer department, the Westminster Fire Department has grown substantially and now operates as an all-career, all hazards fire department utilizing the 48/96 scheduling model. The city of Westminster as a whole has also evolved from its roots as a small farming community on the outskirts of Denver to the city it has become today. Westminster is now a vibrant, dynamic, and affluent city of approximately 118,929 citizens and 46,686 households. With our department's vision to be recognized as the premier fire and EMS service in Colorado, we strive to continually improve our operations as identified in our 2019-2023 Strategic Plan.
The Westminster Fire Department has been awarded accredited status through the Commission on Fire Accreditation International (CFAI). This accreditation demonstrates that Westminster meets or exceeds industry best standard practices. The City of Westminster also achieved Class 1 status through the Insurances Services Office (ISO). This is the highest rating that a city/fire department can attain. Only .04% of fire departments across the United States and Canada have achieved both accredited status as well as an ISO 1 rating.
