Definition
The Bartlett Fire Department Reserve Program provides volunteer firefighters an excellent opportunity to make a tangible contribution to their community. Reserve firefighters experience life in the fire service first-hand and are rewarded with a sense of accomplishment, achievement, and pride. Moreover, reserve firefighters interested in a career in the fire service are also provided with an incredible introduction to the firefighting community and the opportunity to gain invaluable on-the-job experience. A healthy reserve program also allows the Bartlett Fire Department to continually deliver the quality and timely services our community has grown to expect. Therefore, the department will significantly increase that complement in the coming years.
Analysis
The Bartlett Fire Department began restructuring its reserve program in November 2023. At the end of 2024, the program had fourteen (14) reserve members. Through focused recruitment and program improvements, the department expanded that number to twenty‑one (21) reserve members in 2025.
