 LAFD Completes New 2014 City of Los Angeles Fire CodeThe city of Los Angeles Fire Department (LAFD) is excited about its completion of the new 2014 City of Los Angeles Fire Code. The LAFD started long before the Los Angeles City Council passed an ordinance on December 8, 1871, creating a Volunteer Fire Department. Prior to that date, there were roughly 380 dedicated volunteers, at its peak that had participated in the Volunteer Fire Department long before there was adequate firefighting equipment and apparatus. The earliest fire prevention regulations appeared in the Los Angeles Municipal Code in 1916 when the Fire Prevention Bureau was created. Pictured are, from left to right: LAFD Captain Brian Ballton, LAFD Captain Scott Miller, LAFD Inspector John Novela and LAFD Inspector Chris Da Broi. |
