Can you find the fire hydrant in the left picture?  If you had trouble, imagine what the driver of an emergency vehicle might miss in the dark, during a snowstorm at 3am.  Hydrants must be clearly marked and cleared of snow. The picture at right shows a properly marked hydrant with reflective marker.

Since Chardon is the snow capital of Ohio, we ask that you Adapt-A-Hydrant !!  If you have a fire hydrant on or near your property, please help keep it free of snow and debris.  Remember that snow blowers and plows can bury or damage hydrants.  Placing a 4-6 foot high wooden or metal pole next to the hydrant, with a reflective strip or "H" near the top, will help us find your nearest fire hydrant easily.  Hydrants are only useful when they are accessible.

Thank you for helping keep our community safe.
