Government City of Butler Fire Department
The City of Butler Fire Department, led by a full-time Assistant Fire Chief as well as the City’s Public Safety Director, protects the lives, homes, and property of our fellow citizens from fires, disasters, and other emergencies within five miles of the city limits. We strive to complete this task by providing exceptional fire protection, emergency services, fire prevention, and public safety education.
Our department not only responds to all fires but also to traffic accidents, landing the helicopters and various other traffic issues. Our goal is to help anyone in a situation and give them the best possible outcome. We meet the second and fourth Monday of each month.
An essential function of our 23-member department is to provide a positive presence in the community. A strong emphasis will always be placed on connecting the Fire Department and the community. Our hopes are to improve the quality of each resident’s life, every day. Come say “hi” at a family fun day!

A Firefighter’s Prayer
When I am called to duty, God
Wherever flames may rage,
Give me the strength to save some life
Whatever be its age.
Help me embrace a little child
Before it is too late,
Or save an older person from
The horror of the fate.
Enable me to be alert and
Hear the weakest shout,
And quickly and efficiently
To put the fire out.
I want to fill my calling and
To give the best in me,
To guard my every neighbor
And protect their property.
And if according to your will
I have to lose my life,
Please bless with your protecting hand
My children and my wife.
