ANSONIA — The Ansonia Fire Department would like to take this opportunity to thank the membership for your commitment and dedication this past year.
Over these last 12 months the Department responded to 818 emergency calls – that is the most we’ve ever responded to in one year. Furthermore, we recognize that our call volumes continue to increase and appreciate that our 100% volunteer department still finds the time to respond at all hours of the day; still dedicate hours of your time to training; and still find time to help out with stand-by duties and community events.
The 818 calls in 2022 represents a 7% increase over our 2021 responses and a 23% increase over the demand for 2020. Again, we appreciate everything you do to help the Department and the Citizens of Ansonia.
Call volume over last 5 years –
2022: 818 calls
2021: 767 calls
2020: 633 calls
2019: 619 calls
2018: 670 calls
Furthermore, we would like to take this opportunity to thank your families as we are aware of the burden this can put on them when you are asked to give countless hours to the Department every year. Without the support of your families, we would not be able to offer the services that we do.
Finally, we would like to thank the Fire Commissioners, City Hall and the Cassetti Administration for your support of the Ansonia Fire Department. We have received tremendous support from City Hall and are thankful that we can turn to you for all of our administrative and financial needs.
