Cokato Volunteer FIRE DEPARTMENT The new Cokato fi re and ambulance station is easy to spot along US Highway 12. The dedicated volunteers of the Cokato Fire Department are ready to respond at a moment’s notice to anyone needing their assistance in the city of Cokato, Stockholm Township, Cokato Township, and half of French Lake Township, as well as providing mutual assistance to fi re departments in nearby towns. The Cokato Fire Department has a roster of dedicated volunteers. The newest members will be starting 140 hours of fi refi ghter training. As part of its training, the fi re department tries to conduct a controlled burn annually in order to keep the fi refi ghters ready and quick to respond to emergencies. The department relies on grants and donations to provide equipment for the fi retrucks and the fi refi ghters. It does its best to keep equipment updated. If there is an emergency, dial 911. The non-emergency number for the fi re station is 320-559- 0257. The station is located at the corner of 7th Street SE and US Highway 12.
