Firefighters spring into action during Wednesday Wildfires

April 1, 2022

Wildfires at several locations in DeKalb County kept firefighters busy Wednesday.

According to DeKalb County Fire Chief Donny Green, fires broke out and scorched areas off Cookeville Highway in the Cherry Hill community; on Casey’s Cove Road; and on April Drive at Four Seasons. High winds at the time also fanned the flames making fighting the blazes all the more difficult.

Although no one was injured, the fires came dangerously close to homes and other structures in some locations.

Reports of kids shooting fireworks at Cherry Hill; the burning of scrap material from new construction at Casey’s Cove Road; and the arching of a power line after winds blew a tree down on it at Four Seasons may have been the origins of the fires.

County fighters from the Brush Truck, Main Station, Cookeville Highway, Midway, and Four Seasons fire stations responded along with the Tennessee Department of Forestry and manpower from other volunteers and members of the sheriff’s department who assisted using rakes and other hand tools to help keep the fires from spreading.

March 31, 2022
By:

City of Smithville Mayor Josh Miller joined Mike Davidson, CEO, and Jen Sherwood, Safety & Training Coordinator, of Middle Tennessee Natural Gas Utility District to issue a proclamation that April is Safe Digging Month.

All residents are reminded that before you begin outdoor projects such as home improvements, landscaping and gardening; please call 811 or submit an e-ticket at www.tn811.com. Wait until the site has been marked with paint or flags before starting your project. This 3-day period allows MTNG and all the other utilities to locate buried pipes and other underground facilities BEFORE you start digging, staking or excavating. It’s a free service…and is very important in helping you to dig safely.
