This marks the 45th consecutive year the department has received top marks, making it the only department in the nation to achieve this distinction for such a long period.
Fire Chief Michael Kimble credited the entire city for the achievement, highlighting the collaborative effort required to maintain such high standards.
Chief Kimble emphasized the importance of various city departments in supporting the fire department’s success. “Everybody plays a vital role,” he said, noting that the Department of Public Works maintains generators for backup power, which is crucial during outages.
Traffic engineering also plays a significant role by implementing light synchronization, allowing fire trucks and public safety officials to respond more quickly to emergencies.
The communications district and the water company ensure an adequate water supply, which significantly impacts the fire rating.
With continued support from the city, the Baton Rouge Fire Department aims to maintain its exemplary performance in the years to come.
