Fire & Public Safety — Lakeville

Lakeville's public safety is township-shaped: a fire protection territory with Union Township as provider unit, a volunteer-scale department answering some 400 calls a year, a one/two-officer marshal's department, and an ambulance service that is its own corporation, chartered a half-century ago.

The file does not print "Lakeville never burned"; it prints that no fire here has a record.
