annual reports

Poulsbo Fire Department submits an annual report each year which provides the public information on the functions and activities occurring within the fire department the preceding year.

Each year the department also publishes an Emergency Response Service Level Objectives Report which outlines response time objectives for various services. These reports measure the time it takes for the first emergency response unit to arrive on scene to an emergency medical incident or fire, which is critical to the survivability of the patient and the reduction of fire losses in the interest of public safety and welfare.

The Washington State Auditor’s Office conducts biennial financial audits of the department. In our 30+ year history of audits, the department is proud to be free of any findings. You are invited to review the Financial Statements and Accountability Reports from our most recent audit conducted in 2025, which presents the results of our independent audit.
