HOLIDAY SAFETY REMINDER

The holiday season can mean an increased risk of fires and a higher potenti=

City of Houston Fire Department and the Houston Police Department.

fire hazards when they dry out.

? Office parties or the holiday mood may distract you. Be alert for thieve=

who try to take advantage of the holiday season. Sometimes just having fewe=
