Our goal at Pinellas Park Fire Department is to provide the community with information on how prepare for and respond to both natural and man-made disasters. The City of Pinellas Park is centrally located within Pinellas County. The entire area is vulnerable to hurricanes, tornadoes, hazardous material incidents, flooding and lightning. Since Pinellas County is a peninsula, storm surge poses tremendous threat to the coastline areas.
Being well prepared before a disaster strikes is vital. Here, you can get information on preparing a disaster supply kit, how to locate and evacuate to a shelter, contingency planning for family pets, and emergency planning for people with disabilities. As part of our heightened awareness of man-made disasters, information on terrorism and hazardous materials is also available.
