In January of 2005, the City of Mountlake Terrace entered into an Interlocal Agreement with Snohomish County Fire District No. 1 (SCFD1) to provide Fire and Emergency Medical Services to our City. Under the terms of the Agreement, SCFD1 will staff the City's two fire stations. 

Fire Station #18 is located on the corner of 228th St. S.W. and 39th Ave. W. and Fire Station #19 is located near the intersection of 232nd St. S.W. and 58th Ave. W. In April 2006, Fire Station #19 was relocated to a newly constructed facility located just north of the police station and west of City Hall, still near the intersection of 232nd St. S.W. and 58th Ave. W.

Each station is staffed 24 hours per day with one Fire Captain, one Fire- fighter/Paramedic, and one Firefighter/ Emergency Medical Technician. The Fire Chief of SCFD1 is designated as the City's Fire Chief and the District also provides the City with a designated Fire Marshal.

Special trained teams of firefighters also respond to hazardous materials incidents and technical rescue calls. Approximately 70% of the department calls for service are for medical aid. See the 2006 Annual Report for additional information.

The Fire Department focuses on public education in an effort to prevent fires and injuries. CPR/first aid classes, low-cost bicycle helmets, child car-seat clinics, disaster preparedness training and other programs are offered.
