Welcome to uvfdny.com Union Vale Fire District News

The Union Vale Fire District serves the Town of Union Vale, with approximately 5000 residents.  Due to a shortage of volunteers during the day, we have had to hire an outside vendor to give us ambulance coverage during the weekday hours.  We have approximately 55 volunteer firefighters, fire police, EMTs, and drivers, not to mention the auxiliary who support them. Help us continue as a volunteer organization by donating some of your time, (the district pays for all training and equipment) and as an added bonus it will help keep your fire taxes down.

If you would like to send a donation as a thank you or to support the volunteers the addresses are below.  ALL OTHER MAIL SHOULD GO TO THE MAIN ADDRESS ON THE LEFT.

Union Vale Fire District Launches New Website This page last updated on Wednesday, January 18, 2012

We are having problems with updating the website and I apologize for it not staying current.  Hopefully these issues will be resolved early in the new year.

The Board has been repairing and improving Station 1 and 2.  We have been fixing the drainage at Station 1 to prevent flooding.  And at Station 2 we are working on fencing the parking lot. 

We received a DEC Matching Grant which has allowed us to purchase 5 new pagers.

Several new Policies have been added.  Visit the Policy Page. 

I'm trying hard to keep the calendar up to date.  If anything is missing or wrong, just let me know (secretary@uvfdny.com).
