If you dial 911 for help due to respiratory (breathing) difficulty or flu-like illness, you or a family member is asked to communicate as much detailed information as possible about your situation to the dispatch operator. Any responders that will be coming to help you would like to know in advance of critical information to help us assist you and to take necessary precautions that could help us protect ourselves in your service. Thank you.

West Pulaski Fire Department has had a Board Commissioner position vacated when a publicly elected member moved from our service area. When this happens, the Board of Commissioners will seek an eligible person that desires to fill the position. Once an eligible candidate is found then an appointment can be made, with approval from the County Judge.

The application process is simple. If you are a civic-minded individual and would like to be considered for an appointment to the remaining term that ends on or about October 31, 2020, please send us a letter telling us about yourself and your desire to serve in this role.

You must:

1. Be a registered voter that voted in the last presidential election
2. Reside within 5 miles of a West Pulaski Fire Department fire station
3. Send your letter of interest in time to be received by WPFD no later than 5 p.m. on Feb 13, 2020.

We all love our pets. They are part of the family. If a disaster hits close to home, what happens to your pets? Did you know that your Smart911 safety profile permits you to include a picture and details of your furry family members? Dialing 911 would pass along vital details not only for you and your family members to a 911 dispatcher but can include photos and info about your pets.

Smart911 is a safe and secure way to communicate enhanced information to an emergency dispatcher when seconds count. Smart911 is a free service paid for by the State of Arkansas and costs you nothing.
