Greater Napanee Fire Services

Area Served

Greater Napanee is a town of 15,000 people located between Belleville and Kingston. It covers an area of 461 square kilometres. Napanee is the largest community and serves as the administrative centre for Lennox & Addington County. The largest employer is a Goodyear Tire plant and the town is home to two gas-fired power generating stations and several extensive solar power array complexes. Highway 401 and two major rail corridors pass through the town as well. The municipality has a significant amount of shoreline along Lake Ontario and the Bay of Quinte.

Department Profile

Greater Napanee operates a composite department. The Chief and Deputy Chief are full-time, and there are seven full-time firefighters, including a Fire Prevention Officer and Fire Training Officer. All operate from the main station in Napanee. The remainder of the staffing is provided by approximately 72 volunteer/POC firefighters.

History

The Town of Greater Napanee was created in 1999 through the amalgamation of the Town of Napanee, the Township of Adolphustown, the Township of North Fredericksburgh, the Township of South Fredericksburgh and the Township of Richmond. The fire service for the various municipalities had been merged in the late 1970s, so amalgamation brought little more than a name change. The Roblin station dates back to the mid-1970s. Post-amalgamation, the Dorland station was built to improve coverage in the southern portion of the municipality.
