Gilford Fire-Rescue recorded 1,345 incidents between January and August 2026, 114 more than in the same period in 2025 and the highest total through August in department records, the board was told. The minutes state the September count stood at 94 as of 1000 hrs. on Sept. 17, 2026, putting the department "on pace to do 165 for the month," similar to last year but above the 10-year average.
Chief Carrier presented the activity log to the engineers and described the trend as the highest through August on record. The minutes do not break the calls down by category (medical, fire, mutual aid) and do not attach staffing- or budget-specific responses to the higher call volume in this meeting record.
