Community Connect Program
The Lakeville Fire Department has introduced a program called Community Connect to protect residents, businesses and their property. Share critical information about your household/business when you set up your profile - your contact information, if you have pets, if there are any people in your household with functional needs, if you have a smoke detection system that can alert the Fire Department and more. This information will aid emergency fire response personnel when responding to your emergency so they can ensure you and everything you care about is protected to the best of their ability.
