Civil Defense

Frontenac Civil Defense is an organized body of volunteers responsible for the protection of life and property in the event of natural disaster. Due to Frontenac's location in "Tornado Alley", the prime concern is collection and dissemination of information related to severe weather and tornadoes. Civil Defense volunteers are called out during severe weather events and are key in early notification of the public should severe weather be imminent. This storm season typically spans from March through October. Starting in early February, the city's storm sirens are tested on a weekly basis on Wednesday at noon. There are currently 10 members of Frontenac Civil Defense headed by the Fire Chief.
