🚒 YOUR VOTE MATTERS TOMORROW 🚒

When your smoke alarm sounds in the middle of the night, when a loved one is having a medical emergency, when a car crash happens on your street, or when disaster strikes unexpectedly, your firefighters answer the call without hesitation.

Tomorrow, we’re asking our community to answer ours.

For generations, the St. Paul Boulevard Fire Department has proudly served this community. We’ve been there on your worst days, helping neighbors, protecting families, and keeping our district safe. Now, we need your support as residents vote on the proposed new firehouse.

Many have needed us. Now we need you.

Please take a few minutes tomorrow to make your voice heard.

📅 Tuesday
⏰ 3:00 PM – 9:00 PM
📍 St. Paul Fire Department
433 Cooper Road
Rochester, NY 14617

This vote is about investing in the future of emergency services in our community and ensuring your firefighters have a facility that meets today’s safety standards and operational needs.

We respectfully ask our friends, neighbors, families, and supporters to come out and vote.

Your participation matters. Your vote matters.

Please share this post and help spread the word.

Statement on Carol Dr. Fire

The St. Paul Boulevard Fire District responded to a home on Carol Drive this morning, for reported flames coming from a residence.

Upon dispatch, both the on-duty and off-going St. Paul Blvd. crews responded immediately, recognizing the urgency of the situation. Firefighters arrived within minutes and encountered heavy fire conditions. Crews quickly made an aggressive interior attack, bringing the fire under control and conducting a primary search of the residence.

Within ten minutes of the initial dispatch, firefighters located two victims inside the home. Despite the rapid response and extraordinary efforts of our firefighters, both victims succumbed to their injuries due to the extent of the fire.

This is a heartbreaking incident for everyone involved. Our firefighters acted swiftly, making entry under difficult conditions, quickly knocking down the fire and locating the victims in a very short period of time. Unfortunately, the severity of the fire prevented a different outcome. Our thoughts and prayers are with the victims' family and loved ones during this incredibly difficult time.

The cause of the fire remains under investigation by the Monroe County Fire Bureau.

The St. Paul Boulevard Fire District would like to thank our mutual aid partners from the Irondequoit Fire District, Point Pleasant Fire District, North Greece Fire District, Barnard Fire District, Ridge Road Fire District and all emergency responders who assisted at the scene.

Out of respect for the family, no additional information regarding the victims will be released at this time.

Officers and firefighters had the opportunity to train with Battalion Chief Todd Smith of Vigilant Fire Service Training LLC. Today’s focus was the Code 5 Command System — a practical framework that equips company officers and firefighters with the tools to establish command and make critical decisions during the first few minutes of a fire.

Thank you to Chief Smith for spending the day with us and continuing to strengthen the knowledge, confidence, and experience of our firefighters. Training like this ensures we’re always ready when our community needs us most.

That’s a wrap on our Fire Prevention “Win a Ride to School in a Fire Truck” contest!

Today we finished strong at Listwood Elementary School. Across six West Irondequoit CSD elementary schools, 23 outstanding students showed amazing fire‑prevention knowledge—and enjoyed an experience we hope they’ll remember for a lifetime.

A huge thank‑you to everyone who helped make this program such a success. We can’t wait to see you all again next year!

As we all dig out from the storm, don’t forget the fire hydrants by your house! Taking a few minutes to clear the hydrant can make all the difference!
