Welcome to the Vestal Fire Department!  We are an all volunteer, 100% taxpayer supported, organization that provides fire protection to the Town of Vestal.

  
Vestal is a town of about 32,000 people located in upstate New York, 80 miles south of Syracuse, on the New York/Pennsylvania border. 

The Vestal Fire Protection District encompasses all of the land within the boundaries of the Town of Vestal, approximately 53 square miles. The department operates under the direction of the Town Board, which makes up the Board of Fire Commissioners. 

The department is lead by a Chief and three Assistant Chiefs who, along with the Captains and 1st Lieutenants from each of the department's four stations, make up the Fire Advisory Board .  The Fire Advisory Board is responsible for the day to day operation of the 125 person department.
