Another department from Lake County, part of MABAS Division 4, has now been added to the site. Previously known as the Bonnie Brook Fire Protection District, the organization was officially renamed the Beach Park Fire Department in November 2002. This change was made to better reflect the department’s expanded service area and capabilities. The department covers approximately 14 square miles in northeast Lake County, including unincorporated areas and the town of Beach Park. However, it does not provide full coverage for the entire town—some parts are still served by the Winthrop Harbor Fire Department.
As reported in the Beach Park Village Link Newsletter during the winter of 2003:
The New Beach Park Fire Department
In the final months of 2002, there were many positive changes in fire protection services for our village. Previously known as the “Bonnie Brook Fire Protection District,†the name was officially changed to the “Beach Park Fire Department†(BPFD) last November to better define the department’s capabilities and service areas.
The Beach Park Fire Department maintains a diverse fleet of apparatus, including units from Alexis, Pierce, Seagrave, Medtec, and Osage. Their most recent addition is Engine 1222, a 2008 Seagrave Maurauder II engine. Meanwhile, Engine 1212, a 2002 HME/Alexis unit, is currently being repaired at Alexis Fire Apparatus.

In more recent updates, the Beach Park Fire Department opened a second station at 13110 W. Major Avenue in Beach Park. Originally an old house with a garage, the structure was renovated to include a lobby, office space, and two apparatus bays. Today, this station operates with a crew of two or three personnel, functioning as a jump company that responds with either an engine or ambulance depending on the call type.
