The mission of the Mesquite Fire Department is to protect our citizens and visitors by minimizing the loss of life and property resulting from fire, medical emergencies and other disasters in such a manner that will retain the public's support and confidence in all aspects of service delivery.

This mission will be accomplished through Fire Prevention, Investigation, Public Education and Training efforts as well as by maintaining a quick and effective response for fire suppression, Emergency Medical Services and other emergency and non-emergency functions.
