Fire protection is provided by the Orland Fire Protection District, a separate taxing district with its own elected Board of Trustees. It has adopted the 2018 International Fire Code with amendments. The district aims to inspect each business and multi-family building annually, usually unannounced; owners keep fire alarm, sprinkler and restaurant hood suppression systems maintained and tested. Violations get 15 calendar days to correct, and a third inspection costs $50.00.
Open burning needs a district permit, and the Shift Battalion Chief must be notified 24 hours before the burn and at least 2 hours before ignition.
