Release of Department Records
Reports are NOT available at your local fire station. Fire Headquarters located at 1595 County Services Parkway, Marietta, GA 30008 is the only authorized location to perform this function. All requests will be processed in the order in which they are received.
Any citizen of Georgia may obtain copies of fire reports which are defined as public record. Information contained in reports which does not fall under Open Records will be redacted prior to release. Persons other than the property owner or renter of the property will be charged a replication fee of ten (10) cents per page for copies of requested documents.
You will be notified if there is a cost associated with your request over $25.00. Payments can be made online through the GovQA portal or by check made payable to Cobb County Fire & Emergency Services, mailed to the attention of the Records Custodian at the above address.
We do not create nor compile custom summaries, lists, or reports of fires or other emergency responses, pursuant to the Official Code of Georgia (O.C.G.A. § 50-18-71).
