Strategically Placed
Fire Stations

Sedona Fire District (SFD) is a professional, public-funded safety organization providing fire suppression and emergency medical services to Sedona, Village of Oak Creek, and the surrounding area for over 50 years. Comprising 274 square miles, the District spans Coconino and Yavapai counties and staffs five (5) stations throughout the District 24 hours a day.
In a metropolitan area, a fire station may cover a response area no more than a few square miles, but in rural areas, that response area is much larger. SFD has constructed fire stations based on coverage area and need, most recently adding Station 6 in the Chapel Area in order to better respond to calls in that part of the District.

The Duty Chief coordinates with Dispatch to adjust response when one or more crews is on a call. It takes planning, skill, and knowledge of the District to keep all the moving pieces together. Cooperating with neighboring agencies, SFD makes community safety the priority.

Station 5

Located just north of Sedona in Oak Creek Canyon, Station 5 is the smallest active fire station and crew quarters in the District.  In conjunction with Arizona State Parks in Coconino County, SFD has plans to move Station 5 to a location in or near Slide Rock State Park, where the highest volume of calls for service in that area originate.  No interruption to service is expected.

The Sedona Fire District 9/11 Memorial

A Piece of American History…

The Sedona Fire District 9/11 Memorial, located in front of Station 6, 2675 State Route 179, was dedicated on September 11, 2016, the 15th anniversary of the terrorist attacks.

In August 2015, SFD received the gift of a 5.5’ steel girder from the Port Authority of New York and New Jersey. Believed to be from the 20th floor of the World Trade Center (WTC) south tower, this girder is the focal point of the Memorial – a courtyard designed to respectfully honor the memory of the 2,977 lives lost on September 11, 2001, including 343 FDNY Firefighters, 37 Port Authority law enforcement personnel, 23 New York City Police Officers, 8 EMT/Medics, and 2,566 civilians. The Memorial is open year-round to visitors who are welcome to enjoy the grounds and reflect on the events of September 11, 2001. “Never Forget.”
