The “OPERATION SAVE-A-LIFE SMOKE ALARM DISTRIBUTION CAMPAIGN” has come to the Township of Belleville. This program provides free 10-year sealed battery smoke alarms for households lacking in adequate smoke alarm protection. Designed largely to assist single family homes, senior citizens, low-income residents, households with children and other members of the community in need. The availability of these life-saving devices will ensure that all residents have the ability to have a working smoke alarm, aiding in the increased protection of the Belleville community.

🚨 PSA: Clear Your Dryer Vent, Prevent a Fire or CO Poisoning! ❄️

As you dig out from the snowstorm, don't forget to check your dryer vent!
When snow and ice block your exterior dryer exhaust, it creates a serious fire hazard by trapping lint and heat inside.
It can also cause dangerous carbon monoxide to back up into your home if you have a gas dryer.

What to do:
✅ Take a walk around your home.
✅ Use a brush or your hands to clear a 2-3 foot radius around the exterior vent.
✅ Do not use a snowblower or metal shovel near plastic PVC pipes.
✅ NEVER leave your dryer running while you are away during the winter.
Stay safe and stay warm!
