Osage Beach Fire Protection District

Osage Beach Fire Protection District serves the city of Osage Beach and surrounding areas along the Lake of the Ozarks in Missouri. The district operates four fire stations, with Station 1 on Bluff Drive serving as headquarters and Station 2 staffed nearby, while Stations 3 and 4 (in Linn Creek and Kaiser) round out coverage across the district's footprint.

The district provides fire suppression, first-response emergency medical care, urban search and rescue, fire prevention inspections and permitting, public fire safety education, emergency preparedness planning, and fire cause-and-origin investigation. Its fleet includes engines, tankers, brush trucks, a ladder truck, and marine units suited to the district's lake shoreline and rural-urban mix.

Leadership is provided by Fire Chief Paul Berardi, with Tony Cicerelli serving as Board President. The district emphasizes fiscal responsibility, training, firefighter safety, and community-driven fire prevention planning.
