Annual City Fire Inspection for APD Group Homes
- Applies to
- Every group home
- How often
- Annual
Each home schedules an annual fire inspection with the local fire marshal and provides its Life Safety Plan.
The annual city fire inspection is arranged with your local fire marshal, and you provide your Life Safety Plan when they come.
Book it before it's overdue — fire-marshal availability isn't always immediate, and an inspection that lapses because you couldn't get on the calendar is still a lapse.
Availability isn't instant. Schedule ahead so the inspection doesn't lapse while you wait for a slot.
