======================

A Little History:

The Keo Volunteer Fire Department was Authorized by City Ordinance in
1990. The dept had one 1967 Fire Truck and there was basic gear for
eight Volunteers. During this time, the dept worked diligently to
protect our community. In 2002 the Fire dept added space to the City
Hall to meet the needs of the Dept. In 2005, the dept saw great
change. The ISO Rating went from 9 to 6 and a new 1989 Ford Fire
truck was purchased. In 2006 the City purchased a new Tornado Siren,
which allowed the Fire Dept a more efficient way of notifying the
community of tornados. The siren was replaced in 2022.

Previously, they had to use the Fire Truck sirens and drive through
town. Late in 2008, the City purchased a new High Band Communications
System that would be mandatory by 2013. This allowed the Firemen to
have better communication.
