Hello Peter,
Thank you for your patience and understanding. As noted in my
previous email, please find Part 1 of 2 of the list of property
addresses for which the Fire Department received emergency calls
on the dates referenced above.
Due to file size limitations, the records are being provided in
separate transmissions.
Please note that the Fire Department's system does not track fire
damage; therefore, no such list exists.
Part 2 will follow shortly.
