Fire Department                                            EMERGENCY DIAL: 911

Hello and Welcome
       by Paul Maddox, Fire Chief

Our department has been in the past and is made up now of some of the greatest people I have had the honor to know. Click here to see our roster!Fire Truck

Our firefighters each bring their own unique abilities, assets, and knowledge to the table. Some work or have worked as mechanics, carpenters, heavy  equipment operators, brick layers, and other highly-skilled professions. Some own and operate their own businesses and have knowledge in accounting or great skills dealing with people. We also have guys that have held public offices or aspire to hold offices in the future.

Having such a wide variety of people with personal knowledge of so many different situations helps protect all of us. Because of the diversity of our team, we have contacts with people and are able to acquire assets that would otherwise be well beyond our means. The wealth of professional skill our firefighters bring to the table helps educate those with less knowledge in a particular area and makes it easier for us to accomplish goals.

This is what makes our department work so well and capable to do a good job.

The Clinton Fire Department has three stations:

Central Station – This is the main downtown station located at 147 Park Street. A better description of its location is at the intersection of Hwy 65B, Main Street, & Park Street. Located at this station is the fire department's training room which is used for classroom training. The room is also used for other things such as council meetings, baseball / softball sign-up, and for training programs by other agencies -- such as Arkansas Game and Fish for Hunter Education, the Arkansas Forestry Commission teaches wild land fire fighting classes, also for law enforcement classes. The classroom is available for use by about anyone as long as it does not interfere with the fire departments use.

This station also houses Engine 1. This is a 2001 E1 pumper with a 1000 gallon tank and a 1250gpm pump. This engine also carries all necessary equipment to be considered by ISO a class 1 pumper. Also housed at the Central Station is Truck 1. This is a 1980 Hahn Snorkel Ladder truck. It has a 1500gpm pump, 750 gallon tank, and a 1250gpm telescopic tower. It also carries all necessary equipment to meet all ISO standards for a service truck as well as a class 1 pumper.

South Station – This station is located at 199 Hwy 336 West, by the hospital. This is a single bay station and houses Engine 2. Engine 2 is a 2006 E1 pumper with a 1250gpm pump, 1000 gallon tank and also carries all equipment to be a class 1 pumper.

East Station – This station is located at 1825 Hwy 16 East, at the VBC Fairgrounds. This is a two bay station with full bathroom facilities and houses Engine 3 and Truck 2. Engine 3 is a 1971 Ford truck with a Hale 500gpm front mount pump and has a 750 gallon tank. It carries all the equipment needed to be a Class 1 ISO pumper, but it does not have the pump capacity for a Class 1 rating. Also in this station is Truck 2. Truck 2 is a 2009 Chevrolet 3500 HD 4X4 Utility. This truck carries all necessary equipment to be a ISO rated service truck, it carries a lot of fire fighting equipment. It also has a CET skid unit made up of a tank, pump, and foam system on it, which makes it ideal for grass and brush fires along with structure fire capabilities.This truck has a 250gpm pump, carries 250 gallons of water, and has a 15 gallon foam tank.

The City of Clinton Fire Department carries a total of 3750 gallons of water and can pump over 4750 gallons of water per minute with our trucks. We also carry over a mile of hose for water supply and have almost a quarter of a mile of smaller diameter fire fighting hoses with nozzles. We have lots of other capabilities and equipment.
