Bureau Founding
In the early 1970s, foreseeing a need for fire prevention in Howell Township, the Joint Boards of Fire Commissioners of Howell Township began studying the development of a full time Fire Prevention Bureau, which consists of:
- District #1 Squankum
- District #2 Adelphia
- District #3 Southard
- District #4 Ramtown
- District #5 Freewood Acres
After careful review and research, the Joint Boards of Fire Commissioners on April 2, 1977, officially opened the doors of the Howell Township Bureau of Fire Prevention.
