Welcome to the (LEGO) Mountain View Volunteer Fire Department's official website!
The Mountain View Volunteer Fire Department was established in 1952 and provides fire protection and EMS services to approximately 3500 residents in the town of Mountain View. Since its founding, the Mt. View FD has always strove to provide the citizens of Mt. View with the best emergency services available. The department provides an array of services, including structural fire suppression, wildland firefighting, EMS services, water and land Search and Rescue, and vehicle extrication.
With a population that can swell to almost 6000 people in the summer, Mt. View is a rugged response district on the western tip of Mohawk Island with numerous lakes, mountains, and forests mixed with a major State Highway and large summer mansions. Known for its beautiful mountain vistas and pristine lakes, the Mt. View area attracts people from all over the country to experience its serene natural setting and quiet small-town life.
The Mt. View Fire District has many qualities that present various challenges to the fire department. There are thousands of acres of wilderness in the district; most of the land has only simple hiking trails, if any access at all. Many of the camps and summer homes in the district are well over 70 years old and most are occupied seasonally. If these structures catch fire, it is usually too late once the fire department is notified.
