Converse Fire Department News: October is National Fire Preven- tion month. This year’s 2018 Cam- paign “LOOK. LISTEN. LEARN. Be aware. Fire can happen anywhere” is October 7-13, 2018. The National Fire Protection Agency (NFPA) works to educate reducing the likelihood of having a fire and how to escape safely by LOOK-ing for places where a fire could start, LISTEN-ing for the sound of the smoke alarm and LEARN-ing two ways out of every room. For more information about fire prevention, please contact the Converse Fire Department or you can visit www.nfpa.org for more fire prevention tips. The Fire Department will be visiting local schools for a fire prevention talk and demonstration. We ask that you please talk about what they learned, and as a family project develop a home fire safety plan. Smoke detectors save lives! We recommended testing your smoke detectors at least monthly, by pressing the test button to ensure the alarm is working correctly. Also, remember to change the batteries at least once a year. With any luck, we’ll get to experience cooler if not colder weather in coming months, which means turning our heating systems on. We encourage to you get your heating system serviced before the first real cold snap. The first real cold snap is not the time to discover a problem with your heating system. Christmas will be upon us soon! If you’re planning to have a live Christmas tree, here are some useful tips when choosing a tree: select a fresh tree, keep the tree at least three feet away from any heat source, water daily, and don’t use lights that are worn, broken cords or loose bulb connections and always turn tree lights off. Get rid of the tree after Christmas or when it’s dry. A dry tree is a fire waiting to happen.

The Converse Fire Department wishes everyone a safe and happy holiday season! 8 Community Magazine & Directory Code Enforcement / Compliance Code Enforcement Officers enforce city codes to make your city a livable community.

We thank you for your cooperation now and in the future, City of Converse Code Enforcement Staff Do I Need A Building Permit? A summary of projects that require permits include the alteration of any building system within an existing structure (structural, mechanical plumbing and electrical). If you are considering any of the following: new construction, remodel of existing structure, pool installation, concrete work, fence installation/repair, roof repair/re- placement or patio/deck, a building permit is required. Please make note that Texas law and city codes requires you to obtain permits even on your own property to ensure that you meet minimum building standards for your family’s safety and for the safety of future property owners and occupants.
