Lake Township Fire & EMS Services
Did you know?
Lake Township is served by three local fire departments—Greentown, Hartville and Uniontown. The Township contracts with each department to provide fire protection and emergency medical services throughout the community. Together, these three departments have been serving the Lake Township area for more than 200 years.
Each department has its own chief, personnel, equipment and facilities, while working closely with the other departments to provide coverage throughout the Township. When you call 911, you don’t need to know which department serves your area. Dispatch determines the appropriate department and resources based on the location and type of emergency. In some situations, more than one department may respond, and the departments also provide mutual aid to one another and to neighboring communities.
All three departments provide both fire and EMS services, with EMTs and paramedics staffing their stations around the clock. Each department manages its own personnel and day-to-day operations
while working under its service agreement with Lake Township.
By the Numbers:
The three departments have collectively responded to _3692__ calls in 2025; __3392___ in 2024 and __3265___ in 2023. These calls for service include emergency medical incidents, fire-related calls, motor vehicle accidents, mutual-aid responses and other calls for service.
