CAMP TAYLOR FIRE DEPARTMENT - SEEKING VOLUNTEERS

The Camp Taylor Fire Department relies heavily on volunteer firefighters for the second trucks.

Members include engineers, mechanics, painters, plumbers, police officers, and students. If you have the desire to serve your community and you meet the requirements, go to www.camptaylorfire.org, complete the form on the "Contact Us" page, and someone from the Recruitment Team will contact you.

BASIC REQUIREMENTS TO BECOME A CAMP TAYLOR FIREFIGHTER

You must be 18 years of age and possess a valid Kentucky driver’s license.

You must live within the basic area of the District .

You must have a good legal standing.

You must be in good physical condition.

PET OWNERS' RESPONSIBILITIES

When you walk your pet(s) in the City, PLEASE pick up after them. There have been numerous complaints about excrement in neighbors' front lawns.

Excessive exrecment in Village Green Park makes it difficult for residents, families, children, and others to use the Park for its intended purposes. The City has installed a DogiPot station at the north entrrance to the Park. The station is equipped with bags and a depository for dog poop.

Not only is your assistance in cleaning up after your pet appreciated, it's the law.

NEIGHBORHOOD BLOCK WATCH

Parkway Village's Block Watch program has been implemented. Many Block Watch Captains have distributed contact information to their neighbors in an effort to improve communication, safety and security between our residents, the Board of Commissioners, and Audubon Park Police. Visit the 'Contact Us' website page and send us an e-mail if you are interested in becoming a Block Watch Captain or to request additional information. Block watch captain information is also available on the new BLOCK WATCH page of our website.
