Commitment to Safety and Security

The Community Risk Reduction Division of the Sacramento Metropolitan Fire District is committed to the safety and security of our local businesses. The California Fire Code requires periodic inspections of all businesses to ensure the safety of business owners, employees, visitors, and customers. Customarily, this would require the district to visit your business and inspect your property to ensure compliance.

Due to the large number of businesses within our jurisdiction, the Sacramento Metropolitan Fire District has developed low cost options for low risk businesses to choose from.
