Tampa's first organized volunteer fire department was founded in 1884 with a force of only seven to serve the city. On May 10, 1895, the Tampa City Council passed a resolution authorizing the city's first professional, paid fire department. With A. J. Harris presiding as Fire Chief, there were 22 firefighters in five stations at an annual budget of $18,000. On the same day, hand operated pumpers, fire hydrants, and steam engines were introduced for pumping water to firefighter's hoses.** Time period above would not allow dates prior to 1900. TFD was established in 1895. **
