emergency services

The Town contracts with three volunteer fire companies--Hillside, Rhinecliff and Rhinebeck--to provide fire and emergency services in the Town. The Town does not have a police department and instead contracts with the Village of Rhinebeck Police Department and the Dutchess County Sheriff for road patrols and coverage on an as-needed basis; the Town also receives services from the New York State Police. The Town Board appoints two volunteer Emergency Service Coordinators, who consult with and advise the Town.

For emergencies, dial 911.
