Message from Dunlap Fire Chief
In an effort to provide the best fire protection service to our community, Dunlap Fire Department will be conducting fire safety surveys of residential homes.
The primary reason for conducting this voluntary survey is to reduce hazards associated with life and property. The survey team will look for visibility of address numbers and accessibility to your property in the event of a fire or medical emergency.
The Office of the State Fire Marshal, Division of Public Education, offers free smoke alarms to Illinois Fire Departments for installation in homes of those in need. The department was awarded a 2013 Safety Grant. The funds from this grant will be used to purchase carbon monoxide detectors which are recommended as an additional safety precaution for residential occupancies.

Message from State Fire Marshall
SPRINGFIELD – The State Fire Marshal (OSFM) urges families to exercise caution in order to prevent small children from reaching hazardous items kept at home that present a risk of poisoning or other serious incidents. OSFM seeks to educate the public on how to store both over the counter and prescription medicines, cleaning supplies, cosmetics, plants, and other toxic or potentially poisonous products.
In addition, as the Illinois residents prepares for warmer temperatures, many families will begin heading to public parks seeking outdoor activities for their children. However, many playgrounds may faced structural changes through the seasons, which could present potential risks for accidents.
“Parents and adults should be on the look-out for anything that could put children at risk, both at home and during playground hours,” said State Fire Marshal Larry Matkaitis. “By practicing diligence in child supervision and by keeping their surroundings safe, the chances for tragedies decrease.” Full press release.
