Fire Chief

Since 1924, the department has existed to protect the citizens of the Kennebecasis Valley.   Today, as a career fire department, it consists of 40 firefighters including  12 "company officers' which includes senior firefighters, lieutenants, and captains.  The management structure includes the fire chief, deputy fire chief,  and two division chiefs and there are two support staff including an administrative assistant and a financial clerk.  As an incorporated entity, the department is directed by the Joint Board of Fire Commissioners which is formed from the Rothesay–Quispamsis Regional Fire Protection Agreement.

Operating out of two fire stations, the department provides fire protection, vehicle, off-road, ice and water rescue and responds to medical emergencies with Ambulance New Brunswick.  The department also has an active fire prevention division that conducts fire code inspections, provides fire and life safety educational programs, and has a child car seat installation program.

The firefighters of the KVFD are represented by IAFF Local 3591, which you can find more information about here: IAFF 3591
