The first arrivingPlainfield Fire Protection District fire unit arrived within six minutes of the 911 call and found smoke coming from around the basement door. Firefighters deployed a hose line and extinguished the fire that was contained to the basement. The family, who was asleep at the time, was alerted of the fire and able to escape due to functioning smoke alarms. A family pet perished as a result of the fire. The home was deemed uninhabitable and sustained approximately$150,000 in damage.

Yesterday we had the opportunity to visit the factory to inspect our new ambulance that is just having the finishing touches put on it. We hope to have it delivered to us in the next few weeks.

The Plainfield Fire Protection District will be conducting a training exercise on Lockport Street in downtown Plainfield onSunday August 14, 2022. The exercise will be starting at 7am and last approximately 1 hour and will require both directions of Lockport Street to be shut down from Illinois Street to DesPlaines Street. Pedestrian traffic will still be open utilizing the sidewalk on the south side of Lockport Street. Anyone in the area of the exercise will notice an increase in fire, police, and PEMA activity.
This will allow the fire district to evaluate tactics and skills in the event that a fire breaks out in the historic downtown business district. There will be a dedicated viewing area at the corner of Lockport Street and Illinois Street for any media or bystanders who want to watch. There will not be any live fire or smoke in these training evolutions, so no stores, restaurants, or apartments will be affected.
We appreciate the Village of Plainfield and our local business owners’ cooperation; without their support this exercise could not happen.
