The Parlier Station got it’s start in 1948 next to the old City Hall on Tulare Street. It was staffed year-round with an Engine manned entirely by volunteers. On July 1st, 1994, Parlier joined the Fresno County Fire Protection District, and a new station was constructed on Parlier Ave. Originally it was known as Station 1, followed by 41, and is now Station 71. The station was staffed with full time CAL FIRE personnel in 2010 for part of the year as part of a trial period for the City of Parlier. At the end of the year, it was returned to a volunteer staffed station, until December 27th, 2021, where it was once again staffed by full-time CAL FIRE Employees through an cooperative agreement with the City of Parlier and the Fire District. Today there is an Engine and a Patrol protecting the City of Parlier.
