History
The Town of Huron East was formed through amalgamation in 2001. For a time after amalgamation, the fire departments affected continued to operate as separate entities. Three fire departments were merged to form the new fire department:
- Brussels Fire Department
- Grey Township Fire Department
- Seaforth & Area Fire Department
Each fire station is supervised by a District Chief.
