Clark County Fire Marshal
The Fire Marshal's Special Programs activities provide support for the
many large-scale events that happen throughout the county. These events
include the
annual fair and rodeo, the motocross national and disaster
mobilization. The program also includes fireworks enforcement, open
burning, public education and a
speakers bureau. This program involves
the periodic inspection of the county's many commercial occupancies and
uses. According to the United States Fire
Administration almost 85
percent of the businesses involved in fire never recover - even if they
have insurance to cover their losses. Regular fire inspections
coupled
with conscientious fire safety and prevention programs in the work place
are very effective at reducing both the incidence and severity of fires
when they do occur. Regular fire inspections also help to reduce the
rate we all pay for fire insurance in our homes as well as our
businesses.
