Welcome to the Lake County Fire Chief’s Association

The LCFCA membership is made up of Fire Chiefs from the 16 fire department in Lake County as well as 1 private fire departments. The Association also has partners with many public and private organizations that work closely with the fire service in Lake County.

Lake County is situated in Northeastern Ohio, along the southern shore of Lake Erie encompassing 31 miles of shoreline. Lake County is located approximately 20 miles to the east of Cleveland, Ohio. Many national and regional companies call Lake County home and have their headquarters here. Lake County offers rural communities, highly developed suburban centers, and a strong commercial and industrial base. Lake County Fire and Rescue services continue to be a model for much of the mid west due to their exceptional cooperation and readiness capabilities.

The objectives of this Association are to provide a forum for the County Fire Chiefs for the purpose of improving fire protection through department cooperation, mutual-aid and the establishment of uniform operation guidelines within the county. Also provide a forum for recommending changes to state and local legislation as it pertains to all or part of fire department response to emergency and non-emergency incidents.

The men and women who are the firefighters in Lake County are very proud of the service they provide. The fire stations that they work out of are their second homes. The firefighters they work with are their extended families.

Please feel free to visit your local fire station and get to know the people who serve you 24 hours a day, seven days a week!
