Fire District

The Niskayuna Fire District #2 is the Fire District generally covering the Avon Crest, Avon Crest North, Catherine’s Woods, Forest Oaks, Merlin Park, Niska Isle, Birchwood, and the eastern side of Rosendale Estates. Within the District, Niskayuna Fire District #2 is the primary agency, or “first due,” for all fire suppression, rescues, vehicle accidents, and medical emergencies. Niskayuna Fire District #2 also provides mutual aid assistance when requested to Niskayuna Fire District
1, the Stanford Heights Fire District, and the Town of Colonie. Niskayuna Fire District #2 is a member of the Schenectady County Water Task Force which requests use of our Airboat and Rescue throughout the County.  For medical emergencies, Niskayuna Fire District #2 is a New York State Basic Life Support First Response
agency, meaning that our volunteer Emergency Medical Technicians provide basic care and initial life saving members but do not transport residents to the hospital. For the residents of Niskayuna Fire District #2, we are assisted by Mohawk Ambulance Service to provide Advanced Life Support during medical emergencies and transport to local hospitals. The Fire District is led by a Fire Chief who is elected by the active firefighters and confirmed by the Board of Commissioners. The Fire Chief is responsible for all activities within the Fire District. Reporting to the Fire Chief is two Assistant Chiefs, two Captains, and three Lieutenants that provide the organizational leadership for all training and emergency responses.
