How WSFR Keeps Our Community Safe FAQ

How Does WSFR Keep Our Community Safe?

Engineering: Our communities have adopted codes and standards that provide for sound design, and in many cases, require fire protection systems when new buildings are constructed or the use in an existing business changes. These standards are verified in plan review processes, oftentimes when a business is still being planned. The design is validated usually at multiple times during construction through inspection.
Education: WSFR offers a variety of Community Risk Reduction programs designed for specific audiences in the interest of injury prevention and community safety. Oftentimes, these programs are designed to improve awareness of risk and offer tips on managing these risks. Please contact us for more information if you are interested in us providing these educational services to your community group, regardless of size.
Enforcement: Enforcement is aimed towards identifying deficiencies in engineered systems, operational risk, and human factors that reduce the safety of building occupants and the community. WSFR’s goal is to assist businesses with hazard detection and promote voluntary compliance through education and cooperation. We accomplish this by inspecting all businesses at least every three years and some businesses annually. The frequency of these inspections is determined by the life safety risk of the occupancy.
Injury Prevention: WSFR provides child and infant car seat installation and bike helmet fitting. Please contact the on-duty Lieutenant by calling 970-686-2626 to schedule these services.
