  • Note: The Licking Trails Fire Department (formerly the Licking Township Fire Department, Inc.) has ceased operations. It merged with the Licking Township Fire Company several years ago. For a short while near the end of its existence, it was Station 700. Its station was also located in Jacksontown, next door to the LTFC station. This was an artifact of the creation of the LTFC by township trustees dissatisfied with the LTFD. From the creation of the LTFC until the merger of the departments, the LTFD served only portions of Bowling Green Township.
