The Franklin Square and Munson Fire Department traces its roots back to the early part of the Twentieth Century. After several large fires occurred within the community, the need for some type of fire protection became critical. The first fire company, Hook and Ladder Co. #1 of Munson, was organized in 1907. It consisted of a horse-drawn cart with ladders and buckets. The unit was housed in the town's first fire house, built by the company members on an area of farmland donated by one of the members. A large bell, donated from an old schoolhouse in town, was mounted on the roof of the firehouse. Whenever a fire broke out within the community, the bell was rung; sending out a signal to all of the volunteer firefighters. They would come running to with their horses to pick up the ladder cart and go to the scene. A reward was always given to the member who responded with the first set of horses to pull the ladder cart.

As the years past the town continued to grow. As a result, more of a firefighting force was needed. In 1923 another group of men organized the Franklin Square Hose and Chemical Company. This company acquired a motorized engine and housed it in a second firehouse in downtown Franklin Square. The following year, both of the community's fire companies merged to form the Franklin Square and Munson Fire Department.


The department protects an area of about three square miles consisting of Franklin Square, Garden City South, and parts of West Hempstead, with a population of approximately thirty thousand people
