9-1-1 Emergency Services

In the event of an emergency, call 9-1-1.

An integral part of this system is the property identification numbers (green signs with white numbers at driveways on the mainland and at docking locations on islands). If your sign is missing or damaged please Contact us. Without these numbers emergency vehicles will not be able to easily find your location and this may delay their response to your emergency.

Please record your property address on a 9-1-1 sticker and attach it to your phone. Please instruct all members of your family on 9-1-1 use and remember, 9-1-1- is for emergencies only!

Fire stations #1 (Donwood), #2 (Hamlet of Douro) and #4 (Hamlet of Warsaw) have Tanker Shuttle Accreditation. If you live within 8 kilometres of those respected fire halls, contact your insurance company and you may be eligible for a reduction on your insurance premium.
