The fire department at the City of Doerun is more of an administrative department, in that it interfaces with the Doerun Volunteer Firefighters who are part of the Colquitt County Volunteer Association of Firefighters.
Currently, fifteen departments throughout the county make up the association. Those departments provide fire protection to all of Colquitt County and it’s cities, with the exception of the City of Moultrie. The association also has mutual aid agreements with the City of Moultrie’s paid department along with the departments of all neighboring counties. With all these resources Doerun enjoys a class 5 fire insurance rating and the discounts associated with it.
There are five sub-departments that make up the city’s Utility Department; Electric, Gas, Sewer, Streets, and Water. Although there are currently only 6 employees covering all these services, they bring the required expertise to handle the city’s normal workload.
