For generations, your West Metro Firefighters have answered the call of duty
They continue to serve our communities with one thing on their mind: your safety. The members of West Metro Professional Firefighters IAFF Local 1309 serve selflessly and courageously as they carry out their oath of protecting their neighbors in Colorado. When you don't see them responding to emergencies, your firefighters are constantly training and honing their skills so they can provide you with what you deserve: excellence in public safety.

The firefighters we're proud to represent don't just hang up their gear and walk away when their shifts are over. Your firefighters are proud to be a part of the communities we serve and take part in several charitable and philanthropic work with our neighbors. Your firefighters are honored to protect our neighbors and are thrilled to be a part of the communities that we've taken an oath to serve. The members of our association have a proven track record of serving our communities both on and off duty, and we promise to continue that tradition for years to come.
