About The Department

 

Libertyville Fire Department

 

The Libertyville Fire Department (LFD) serves an area of approximately 9.1 square miles protecting and providing services for more than 21,000 residents.  LFD also provides services under contract to the Libertyville Fire Protection District.  LFD provides a number of services including fire suppression, EMS (paramedic), special rescue, hazardous materials, dive rescue, public education, and fire code enforcement.  As one of the busiest fire departments in Lake County, LFD responded to 3940 emergency calls in 2008 within the Village, the District, and neighboring communities.  These responses and services are provided out of three fire stations staffed with 33 full-time employees (25 of which are members of Local 3892), and 9 contract employees.  Currently there is a minimum of 10 personnel and a maximum of 13 personnel assigned to each shift between the three stations.  Personnel numbers can vary due to vacation time, injury, and sick leave.  The normal work day for each shift is 24 hours on duty (one shift) followed by 48 hours off (two shifts).  Shifts commence at 7:00 am and end at 7:00 am the following day.  The administration offices along with the fire prevention bureau are open from 8:00 am until 5:00 pm Monday thru Friday. For more Department related information, please contact LFD Headquarters at 847-362-5664 during normal business hours.
