The Harris County Fire Marshal’s Office is a fire protection/law enforcement agency that provides essential public safety services, primarily in unincorporated areas of Harris County.  HCFMO relies on a “customer first” operating philosophy to achieve agency goals, balance community risks from fires or other emergencies, and encourage strong, sustainable economic development.  

The Fire Marshal is appointed by Commissioners Court to a term not to exceed two years.  HCFMO employees are fire protection personnel certified by the Texas Commission on Fire Protection (“TCFP”) and, where required by law, employees are  peace officers licensed by the Texas Commission on Law Enforcement (“TCOLE”).
