The Lockland Fire Department was established in 1894. Since then it has grown from a department of volunteers with horse-drawn equipment to a Fire Department equipped with state-of-the-art fire apparatus. The department has a combination of a strong, dedicated force of fifty-five Volunteers (paid-per-call) with part-time employees from 6 am to 6 pm (Monday through Friday) under the direction of a part-time Chief. Lockland was one of the first small departments in the Greater Cincinnati area to achieve an ISO 4 Rating, two decades ago. Equipment includes:
