Press release:

As a result of the COVID-19 pandemic, the City of Batavia Fire Department temporarily suspended our community outreach offerings including the Child Passenger Safety Seat Program. This was necessary to ensure the health and safety of our staff from the possible effects of COVID-19. 

We are pleased to announce that effective immediately, the City of Batavia Fire Department will have Child Passenger Safety Seat Technicians available to check and install seats on an APPOINTMENT-ONLY BASIS. 

As we reintroduce this most valuable program back to our community we remain vigilant in protecting our staff from a possible COVID-19 exposure. 

With that being said, we are requiring that the following guidelines are adhere to assist in safeguarding everyone involved: 

  1. To schedule an appointment, contact the City of Batavia Fire Headquarters at (585) 345-6375. No walkups will be accepted.
  2. All inspections and/or installations will take place in the rear parking lot of Fire Headquarters.
  3. Visitors will not be allowed inside the building for any reason. 
  4. If an individual appears to be ill or sick, technicians will not complete the inspection/installation and the guardian/parent will be directed to reschedule the appointment. Guardians/parents feeling ill or running a fever are urged to please stay home and reschedule an appointment. 
  5. For the protection of our staff, the child passenger seat along with the vehicle must be clean and free of debris. Additional disinfecting may be conducted by Fire Department personnel prior to the check. 
  6. Guardians/parents are required to wear a face covering at all times during the check. 
  7. Only one guardian/parent will be allowed during the installation/inspection along with the child. 

Failure to abide by the above guidelines will result in the suspension of the appointment. 

The City of Batavia Fire Department Child Passenger Safety Seat Technicians thank you for your cooperation and understanding in keeping our staff healthy and safe during this difficult time.
