Fire Safety Rating for Seneca Improves
09/18/2015

(KNZA)--The city of Seneca’s fire safety rating has improved, which should mean lower insurance premiums for home and business owners in the city.

Seneca Volunteer Fire Chief Allen Henry informed the City Council Wednesday evening that the Insurance Services Office has upgraded the city’s Public Protection Classification rating from 5 to 4.

The ISO rating is used to establish fire insurance premiums for residential, commercial and industrial properties.

ISO’s evaluation program includes ten classifications, with 1 being the highest and 10 being the lowest.

The ratings are based on surveys of the fire department, water availability, and the efficiency of the dispatch office.
