911 Address Signs
Tornado Siren Test
Scott's Law
TThe Clin-Clair Fire Protection District recommends you display your address number clearly on your residence or business so that it is easily distinguishable from the street. During an emergency every second counts and valuable time can be lost if the residence or business number is not posted and/or visible. In an effort to help us find you faster, the Clin-Clair Fire Protection District has available to its District residents highly visible reflective address signs for a nominal fee. If you are interested please download the order form
here
and contact the Clin-Clair Fire Protection District.
For residents outside the Clin-Clair Fire District please call the Clinton County Sheriff's Dept and ask for the Addressing Coordinator. They have signs available for residents in other fire protection districts. We will no longer be making signs for residents outside the Clin-Clair FPD.
Clin-Clair Fire Department will be testing the tornado siren every 4th Monday of the month around 7 pm. The test will consist of a one minute sound of the siren. In the case of an actual emergency, a three minute continuous sound of the siren will be activated. If you have any questions about our test procedure, please contact Chief Brian Hubert.
The Clin-Clair Fire Department members are asking for your help in keeping us safe/alive during emergency incidents. Please slow down, move over, yield, and/or stop when emergency lights are on at the scene of an emergency; even while the trucks are being backed into the station. Click

Fire Hydrant Accessability
Every second counts during a house fire. Difficulty in locating fire hydrants near your home during a fire emergency may delay arrival at the scene and cause potentially disastrous results. The Clin-Clair Fire Department is strongly urging residents to refrain from painting or landscaping fire hydrants. We may miss it during an actual emergency!
By keeping your hydrant free and clear of debris, you can really help us out.
Painting your hydrant a different color is not permitted because each color signifies the amount of water (GPM) that hydrant will flow under normal operating conditions. When enroute to the scene the Clin-Clair Fire Department uses the colors to determine the best hydrant to use.
If you know of a hydrant that has any of the following issues please contact us
• Covered by vegetation and unable to be seen
• Plants, trees, and shrubs planted in close proximity
• Missing discharge caps
• Knocked over
• Leaking
• That has the main discharge less than 15 inches from the ground
