The Aurora Fire Department strives to “provide exceptional service by well trained professionals” in all that it undertakes. In exemplifying this mission, the department continues to provide a quality public education program with the resources that are allocated. The department will provide a level of public education and or community service to community groups, civic organizations and individual citizens so long as the requested activities allow those emergency response personnel who are providing the education/service to maintain emergency response capabilities. To maintain departmental integrity and ethical standards, the department will evaluate all requests for department personnel and apparatus and make every effort to approve those requests that do not specifically promote private business interests or place the department in a compromising situation.
