Peoria: New air unit a ‘force multiplier,’ one of many tools keeping city safe

As the honored leaders of the Peoria Fire-Medical and Police Departments we are proud of the city’s unwavering support for public safety.

The men and women of our departments work tirelessly to keep Peoria a safe community for residents, visitors, schools and businesses.

Our reputation as a safe city makes Peoria an incredible place to raise a family, start a business, get in touch with the great outdoors, or settle into well-deserved retirement. That’s why our city continues to grow.

As we welcome new neighbors and businesses and watch our city limits expand, we must be able to meet new public safety demands.

Peoria city leadership understands this and continues to allocate resources to ensure we can maintain a safe city for all.

Our police officers, firefighters and medical teams are now covering over 230 square miles in the city limits and in our planning area, which includes Lake Pleasant. That is a lot of ground to cover and if you are in an emergency situation, every second matters.
