Fire Reports

The process to request fire reports has recently changed. Fire report requests, including fire incident reports, fire inspection reports, and property assessments, should be made through the City of Raleigh's Public Records Request Portal. 

Requests are processed in the order received. Some may take longer to fulfill based on complexity or legal review requirements. You’ll receive updates through the portal as your request moves through the process.
