Overview

The Fire Department actively enforces the 2015 Minnesota State Fire Code to keep structures within the city of Chanhassen in a safe condition for the occupants, visitors, customers, and emergency responders.

This has a direct result in the low occurrences of incidents and the reduction of injuries in the workplace.
