I am Richard G. Petrin Chief of the Little Compton Fire Department. I have been in fire service for approximately 34 years. My top priority is the safety of the firefighters and the people that they protect.

To the Little Compton Fire Department, there is nothing more important than the community we serve. The men and women of this fine organization recognize their responsibility to help ensure the safety of our citizens.

For more than 76 years, our fire department has strived to adapt and change as the risks, threats, and challenges to the community have changed. I firmly believe that our greatest asset to continue to meet the needs of our community is our team of hard-working professionals.

We are committed to providing the highest quality of fire protection, emergency medical, and technical rescue services available to the 3,500 plus residents we protect. Our department also strives to provide quality disaster preparedness, response, protection, and mitigation services to the Town of Little Compton.

It is indeed my honor to serve the citizens of Little Compton the Honorable Town Council and the men and women of the Little Compton Fire Department.

Sincerely,
Richard G. Petrin
Chief of Department
