News:
Kearney Volunteer Fire Department was able to conduct a successful practice burn this last weekend in preparation for a future fire station and water tower on the City's property located on Avenue N. It is practice and training like this that allows our men and women to be ready when you need them.
We would like to give a special THANK YOU to the City's Sanitary Sewer crew. They do not hear those words nearly as often as they should. Crews have completed flushing the entire City sanitary sewer system which consists of 176 miles of sanitary sewer piping. This cleaning took the crew three years to complete. They have now started over cleaning the City’s system. Because of their countless hours of work, we have the luxury of clean and safe sanitation in our community.
Kearney Volunteer Fire Department would like to remind the public that due to weather conditions they were not able to conduct the training house burn last month. The burn will now take place tomorrow, October 14, 2017 at 6 a.m For the safety of the public and the firefighters, we ask you keep your distance.
