VC Fire Department

Call 911 In Case Of Emergencies

VENTURA COUNTY FIRE DEPARTMENT:

The Ventura County Fire Department serves both incorporated and unincorporated portions of Ventu Park. They are our community’s first line of protection from wildfires. The VCFD works with the Ventu Park Fire Safe Council in our attempts to communicate fire safety information to our residents. The VCFD has a great website that provides a wealth of information on their activities and what we all can do to make our homes safe. We encourage everyone to visit their website:


The County Fire Department has a Youtube video with good information about protecting your home:

This Youtube video shows you the importance of having defensible space around your home and the preparations you need to make so you can leave early, evacuating well ahead of the fire. Wildfires, fueled by a build-up of dry vegetation and driven by hot, dry winds, are extremely dangerous and almost impossible to control. Many residents have built their homes and landscaped without fully understanding the impact a fire could have on them.


It’s not a question of if, but when, the next wildfire will occur. That’s why the most important person protecting your life and property is not a firefighter, but you. With advance planning and preparation, you can dramatically increase your safety and the survivability of your property.

The Ventura County Fire Department has a Public Information Office that posts updated information about current fire conditions:
