In order to better protect our community, we have created a smoke detector program to ensure that all Newbury citizens can benefit from smoke detectors.  If you are unable to purchase a smoke detector, and would like one at no cost, simply contact us.  You can call our non-emergency number at 440-564-2261 or email us at info@newburyfire.org.  We hope this makes a difference!

The Newbury Volunteer Fire Department is always in the process of updating our map and address book of all the homes in Newbury Township.  This is a book that we have on all of our trucks which shows Newbury Township roads with individual addresses listed.  We have, over the years, kept this as up to date as possible.  We do not receive any of this information from the township or county level, the volunteer members of our department have spent many hours doing this themselves.

This is very important information to us and you during an emergency in which you may need the fire departments assistance.  Our map and address book can help us pinpoint your location quicker.  Without it, minutes can be lost.

We drive around the township and get addresses that may have been added since our last update and insert them into our book.  Occasionally we may come across a resident that does not have their address posted and visible from the road, for one reason or another.

We think it is very important for your address to be posted, not only for fire/rescue, but for police as well.  In time of an emergency, not being able to find your house address quickly, can mean the difference between life and death.

If you are interested, the fire department sells reflective address signs at a nominal charge at our cost.   If you are not interested in purchasing our signs, please put something up of your own that is visible from the road.

Throughout the year, the fire department receives many complaints about open  burning.  In order to protect you and yours from any un-necessary damage, you should know about the rules and regulations pertaining to open burning. Are you aware it is illegal, in the state of Ohio, to burn grass, leaves, etc without a permit from the fire

department.  Did you know it is illegal to burn materials containing rubber, asphalt, grease, or any other liquid petroleum products?  You may burn agricultural waste materials, only after obtaining a burn permit from the fire department.  If you are interested in burning agricultural waste materials, you can click below to print a burn permit. You may also obtain a permit from the firehouse, located at 11111 Kinsman Rd.  Fill out the form and return at least 10 days prior to your planned burn date.  A member of the fire department will come to the site to ensure safe conditions and inform you of the burning laws prior to your burn..  These laws were made to protect you and your property from preventable harm.  Please be safe.
