F IRE P REVENTION ( FIRE MARSHAL ) • Responsible for enforcing fire code so incidents don’t happen. • Examples of code enforcement: business fire safety inspections, overcrowding complaints, burn permits, building plans review, certificates of occupancy and use, access and ingress to alleys for fire protection, etc. • When a business is found with a violation, the goal is to assist the owner in correcting the problem. The goal is code compliance (safety). • The Fire Marshal’s involvement can be a double - edged sword. We can either work with property owner to correct the problem or we can shut down a business, function and/or issue a citation.
