Community Risk Reduction
Community Risk Reduction
The Community Risk Reduction (CRR) Division of Woodinville Fire & Rescue (WFR) offers risk- reduction services for various businesses and residences in our District.
The CRR Division works proactively with the City of Woodinville to reduce risk for the entire community. WFR has been actively involved in fire prevention for many years through education, building inspections and permitting.
Our CRR division performs fire code and safety inspections. Inspections are conducted to identify and correct hazardous conditions and prevent accidents before they happen. Inspections help reduce the number of fires, by correcting potentially dangerous situations. WFR works with businesses and building owners to ensure they are following the current fire code and keeping occupants safe.
“Community Risk Reduction is the identification and prioritization of risks, followed by the coordinated application of resources to minimize the probability of occurrence and/or the impact of unfortunate events.” –Vision 20/20
