SAINT-LAZARE (Québec) – April 23, 2007
The Saint-Lazare Service de sécurité incendie would like to remind its
citizens that it’s main mission is to protect life and property against
fires. Prevention awareness campaigns are also an essential part of
their job. Starting this summer of 2007, firefighters will be zooming in
on two major aspects of fire prevention:
|
· |
Fire hydrants and the importance of respecting the minimum clearance around and
in front to provide free access
for their maintenance and use; and
|
|
· |
Smoke detectors which should be present and functional in every home.
|
In each case, during these awareness campaigns, owners will be reminded
of the importance to pay special attention to these protection devices
and will have to bring any changes requested by the fire department to
comply with the municipal by-law.

Service de sécurité incendie at 450 424-1114.
