The Charlotte Fire Department & Rural Fire Assn. is a combination department consisting of full-time on-duty fire officers and members of the Charlotte Volunteer Fire Department, the volunteer members are truly the backbone of our Department. In our organizational model, a Captain (WSFS) and Lieutenant (DTFS) are on duty 24/7 staffing the stations, with volunteers responding to the station or scene for calls of service. In addition to emergency calls for service, our members provide training, public education, maintenance, fire inspections, and other community-related services.
