FIRE AND AMBULANCE The Township of Montville is very fortunate to have a cadre of volunteers who provide around-the-clock fire protection and first aid services. These volunteers serve in one of three fire districts - Montville, Towaco and Pine Brook - or on the township-wide Montville Township First Aid Squad. Fire Districts Each Fire District raises operating and capital funds through the local property tax. Each district is governed by an elected Board of Fire Commissioners. Fire protection operations are headed by the Fire Chief. The Fire Districts provide services to residents and businesses within the district. District boundaries do not necessarily coincide with the historic boundaries separating Montville, Pine Brook and Towaco, nor with postal zip code boundaries. Fire district boundaries are described below.
