Liberty Township Fire Department

The Liberty Township Fire Department has proudly served the Liberty Township and Powell Communities since 1947. It has been recognized over the years for many innovations and "firsts," such as the first department to be equipped with a boat for water rescue, the first to have the "Jaws of Life" for vehicle extrication, and the first to provide emergency medical care (known then as the Life Squad). Recently, our department was again recognized as a leader and innovator in pre-hospital emergency medicine by the State of Ohio as the "2011 Emergency Medical Provider of the Year". The Liberty Township Fire Department has always redefined itself and changed with the needs of the community. The community we serve has experienced over 70% growth in population since the 2000 census and our Fire Department has seen a 49% increase in call volume since 2003.
