As reported earlier this week, a small fire occurred at the City’s Material Recovery Facility (MRF) on August 8, 2017. The MRF’s fire suppression and alarm systems immediately activated and staff from the City and Recycle Ann Arbor safely evacuated the building. The fire was small but due to the nature of the facility and operations, had potential to spread quickly. The City and Pittsfield Fire Departments promptly responded and extinguished the fire.
