Miami Township Fire-Rescue (MTFR) is a primarily volunteer department consisting of three full-time employees, eight part-time employees, and 38 volunteer members. We provide Advanced Life Support (ALS) emergency medical transportation, fire prevention and suppression, rescue services, and safety education to the residents and over 1 million annual visitors to our service area.

MTFR responds to emergencies in a 24 square mile area, encompassing the villages of Clifton and Yellow Springs and the unincorporated parts of Miami Township. This area includes John Bryan State Park, the Clifton Gorge State Nature Preserve, the Glen Helen Ecology Institute and Antioch College. Services are provided from two fire stations, located in Clifton and Yellow Springs.

We are funded both through a property tax levy that has consistently received overwhelming support during elections.
