Dear Fellow Town of Mamaroneck Residents:
In this extraordinary time, in order for the firefighters of The Town of Mamaroneck Fire Department to continue to provide our community with the best level of service and care possible we are proactively seeking your help.
To avoid any potential quarantining/shutting down of our emergency service facilities, and to assure that our first responders can continue to meet the community’s emergency needs we need everyone to immediately inform first responders if anyone at their home is under “mandatory” or voluntary quarantine. If you’re not asked by the TMFD unit when they arrive, please tell them if anyone is.
If you are quarantined (mandated or self-imposed) due to possible or confirmed COVID-19 exposure, you can notify the TMFD, by email to COVID-19-info@tmfd.org, or by leaving a voicemail at 914-834-2438. Quarantine information is completely voluntary. It will not be shared outside the local emergency services (Police, Fire, EMS) and will only be disclosed to responders if called to your address. Alternatively, you can place a note/sign on your front door alerting first responders (Police, Fire, EMS) to take infection prevention precautions before entering your home. Please let us know when you first started self-isolation, so we will know when to follow up with you.
Please note access to the Weaver Street firehouse is limited until further notice to TMFD members and staff only. If you have a question or concern, please call 914-834-2101 and select option 6. There is someone there 24/7 to answer your call. And as always, if it’s an emergency DIAL 911.
The best way to prevent illness is to avoid being exposed to the virus. Take steps to protect yourself. Wash your hands often and “effectively” (at least 20 plus seconds). Hand sanitizer can be used; however it does not replace washing your hands. Washing hands is still the best method available for removing germs. Avoid touching your eyes, nose, and mouth with unwashed hands. Avoid close contact with people who are sick. Put distance between yourself and other people, this is especially important for people who are at higher risk of getting very sick.
Thank you for your assistance.

This morning at approximately 11:00hrs, we were dispatched to West Garden Road for a reported structure fire. Engine 36 and Ladder 19 arrived on scene first due to find fire showing from the rear of a 2 1/2 story peaked roof private dwelling, 2231 transmitted a #1075 (Working Fire). Members stretched a hose line to the rear and quickly knocked down the main body of fire. All occupants were out of the house on arrival and primary searches were conducted and negative. The fire was placed under control in approximately 45 minutes and we were returned to service.
This could have been much worse, first due saw flames and immediately called to stretch a line. 10-75 (active fire) called and a great response from all your TMFD volunteers.
What You Need to Know About COVID-19 Coronavirus:
• Coronaviruses are a family of viruses that cause mild illnesses like a cold, to more serious illnesses like pneumonia.
• Infections with this new virus have been reported in many countries, including the U.S. For an updated list of affected areas, visit cdc.gov/coronavirus.
• The virus is likely to be spread from person to person, but it is currently unclear how easily it spreads.
• Commonly reported symptoms include fever, cough, and shortness of breath.
• Most people (80%) with COVID-19 will feel like they have a bad cold or the flu. Some people will require hospitalization. People who are at most risk for severe illness are elderly or have other health conditions.
What should you do?
Go about their daily lives, but take certain precautions:
• Get the flu shot—it’s not too late. Although the flu shot will not protect you from COVID-19, it will help prevent the flu which has similar symptoms to this coronavirus.
• Cover your coughs and sneezes with a tissue or your sleeve (not your hands).
• Wash hands often with soap and warm water for at least 20 seconds.
o Use an alcohol-based hand sanitizer if soap and water are not available.
• Do not touch your eyes, nose, or mouth with unwashed hands.
• Surfaces (e.g. desks and tables) and objects (e.g. telephones, keyboards) need to be wiped with disinfectant regularly Why? Because contamination on surfaces touched by multiple people is one of the main ways that COVID-19 spreads.
• If you feel sick, stay home.
• If you have fever, cough and/or shortness of breath, and recently traveled to an area with ongoing spread of coronavirus, or have been in close contact with someone who has recently traveled to any of those areas, stay home and call/see a doctor.
• If you have these symptoms, but no travel history, stay home and call/see your doctor.
o If you need connection to a health care provider, or are having a medical emergency call 911.
o Hospital/EMS/Fire staff will not ask about immigration status.
At this time, you DO NOT need to:
• Limit travel within Westchester or NYC.
• Avoid public gatherings and public transportation.
• Change anything about where you get your food or how you prepare it.
• Wear a face mask if you are not sick. Face masks are only recommended if directed by a health care provider.
o People wear protective face masks for many reasons, including seasonal allergies, pollution or protecting those around them from a common cold. They should not be harassed or targeted for wearing one.
It is important that we separate facts from fear and guard against stigma.
A lot of information circulating about coronavirus on social media and even in some news reporting is not based in the facts. Support your friends, neighbors and colleagues by proactively sharing this message and countering misinformation. Obtain information about COVID-19 from trusted sources like the Health Department, the CDC, and the World Health Organization (WHO).
