Our department is a public department whose members are on a combination of paid and volunteer status. We have an ISO rating of 5. The Monmouth Fire Department responds to all requests for assistance in the city limits. The city of Monmouth is a diverse community, with industry, commercial businesses, and the home to Monmouth College, a private 4 year college with approximately 1200 students. Our goal is to provide the citizens of Monmouth a professional service that will mitigate any hazard in our community. There are 15 career fire fighters and a chief. The 15 career firefighters are assigned to 1 of 3 shifts. Each shift has one Assistant Chief, one Captain, and three Fire Fighters. We work a 24/48 schedule, with the chief working a 40 hour week. The career members are augmented by 10 volunteer fire fighters who are on call.
