The Department is also tasked with coordinating all preventative and routine maintenance activities for the District’s eight stations, training facility, classrooms, and administrative building.  The Department also oversees the District’s Logistics program such as supply ordering, receiving, cataloging, and distributing. Logistical and program support is also provided across the other Departments.  The primary mission is to protect the public’s investment in emergency services facilities, fleet, and equipment and to ensure effective and uninterrupted emergency response by maintaining and supporting the District’s facilities and equipment assets.
