Public Safety
Roxbury is served by a volunteer fire department financed by local
taxes. The department has a roster of 16 firefighters with the chief
appointed by the selectmen. The Town's 1974 International pumper is
located at the fire station in Roxbury Village. The pumper is
considered in good condition. The Town has mutual aid agreements with
Rumford and Byron and a contract with Andover. The most densely
developed area at Roxbury Pond is some 10 miles from the Roxbury Fire
Station requiring travel through Roxbury Notch. The Andover Fire
Station is approximately 4 miles from Roxbury Pond.
The Town is served by Med-Care Ambulance service which is a
quasi-municipal system located in Mexico.
Law enforcement Is provided by the Oxford County Sheriff's Department
and the Maine State Police. In addition there is a town constable
appointed by selectmen and dispatched through the County Sheriff's
Department.

(may 2025 - maybe nothing has changed except they might have a newer
pumper - and the constable might be gone)
