Welcome
The Oneco Fire Company operates out of one station to
protect a primarily residential area. We service an area of about
twenty eight square miles with a population of approximately three
thousand people.
The Oneco Fire Company was formed in June of 1942. The department’s
first chief was Alfred Wilcox, elected in 1942. Since then, the
department has had six chiefs, including our current chief, Peter
Capobianco. We are allowed twenty five members on our roster at any
given time by our governing body, the Sterling Fire District. The
Sterling Fire District levies a fire tax which funds and oversees the Oneco and Sterling Fire Companies.

Our department responds to fire, EMS, motor vehicle and water
emergencies. In 2002, we responded to 163 calls. We have a training
night every Wednesday evening to keep our member’s skills sharp. Many
of our members are certified Emergency Medical Technicians/Medical
Response Technicians as well as Fire Fighters. We are on call twenty four hours a day, seven days a week to protect
your family and our friends and neighbors.
