Troy Fire Department History

The Troy Fire Department was organized in 1940 by a group of businessmen and concerned citizens in what was known as Big Beaver, a small "village" located at Big Beaver Road and Rochester Road. This group convinced the Township Board that a fire department was needed as well as a fire truck and other equipment (which were delivered in March, 1940). Prior to that, fire protection was provided by the Clawson Fire Department. The Fire Department had 19 founding members and operated out of a Ford dealership and garage on Rochester Road south of Big Beaver. In the mid-1940's, as the population began to grow, a second fire fighting group was authorized at Square Lake and Livernois Roads at a settlement known as "Troy Corners." Over the last 60 years, the Troy Fire Department has grown to six fire stations, one training center, 180 volunteer members, and 10 career staff members, continuing its proud tradition of community service. In 1940, Troy's first fire apparatus was a 1940 American LaFrance pumper. Today, the fire department operates 9 class 'A' pumpers; 3 platform ladder trucks; 3 conventional ladder trucks; 1 heavy rescue truck; 2 mobile air tenders; one grass fire truck; one reserve pumper; one training pumper; 13 staff vehicles; and several specialized response vehicles.
