Austin Fire Reports
"In accordance with the Public Information Act, Chapter 552 of the Texas Government Code, Austin Fire processes requests for records. The most common requests are related to Austin Fire operations including, but not limited to, incident reports (fires, collision, medical treatment by our personnel, etc.) and property reports (environmental assessments, inspections, violations, spills, etc.).
The Public Information Act does not require governmental bodies to create new information, perform legal research, or to answer questions. The request must ask for records already in existence.
Visit the City of Austin Public Records Center to submit a request.
