- Detroit_Fire_Department abstract "The Detroit Fire Department (DFD) is the paid, professional fire department that provides fire protection and emergency medical services to the city of Detroit, Michigan, United States. The DFD currently operates 59 fire companies out of 43 Fire Stations, located throughout the city, with a total sworn personnel complement of 830 firefighters in all ranks. The Detroit Fire Headquarters used to be located on Larned Street in Downtown Detroit. On July 8, 2013 the headquarters moved to the Detroit Public Safety Headquarters on 3rd street. The building, a former MGM Grand Casino will host Fire, Police, EMS and additional services.The Detroit Fire Department responds to approximately 165,000 emergency calls annually, with over 80% being medical emergencies.Until December 31, 2013 the Detroit Fire Department was led by Fire Commissioner Donald R. Austin, a former member of the Los Angeles Fire Department and a Detroit native. Austin came to Detroit in May 2011 on the difficult mission to bring change to the Detroit Fire Department. In November 2013 he resigned due to changes in City Administration. Austin kicked off a reform of the department, which will have to be fulfilled by his successor. The new mayor of Detroit, Mike Duggan named Jonathan Jackson, a 25 year veteran of the department, and a Second Deputy Fire Commissioner under Austin, as the Interim Fire Commissioner on December 23, 2013. Craig Dougherty, a former member of Engine 50 on the city's East Side and Fire Chief under Austin became a Second Deputy Commissioner under Jackson. The Administration was rounded out by Deputy Commissioner, Edsel Jenkins, C.P.A., Second Deputy Commissioner, Sydney Zack, LL.M., and Second Deputy Commissioner Orlando Gregory.By the end of March 2014 Commissioner Jackson resigned due to a life threatening neural disease. On April 8 deputy commissioner Jenkins was named as the new Executive Fire Commissioner.The City of Detroit has to cope with an enormous fire load, due to numerous vacant buildings throughout the city. Combined with the economic situation this results in many arson fires on a daily basis. During 2011, the DFD responded to over 9,000 working structural fires. Over 95% of the structural fires the DFD faces are caused by arson, fifty times the national average for arson-related fires. About 85% of the arson fires that occur daily in Detroit occur in vacant homes. There are no accurate statistics considering the arson rates in Detroit, due to the fact that only a fraction of the fires can be investigated with the highly understaffed arson unit. Only investigated fire scenes can be ruled arson. The others just remain "suspicious" fires.".
