The Fire/EMS Standards of Coverage study was commissioned to analyze the effectiveness of the current deployment system; evaluate the need for additional fire stations, apparatus, and crews; recommend criteria for the placement and timing of these stations; and develop the criteria for deployment reductions of three to five fire stations to meet the fiscal needs of the District’s declining revenues. The study exceeded all of the District’s expectations and was very well received by the elected officials and stakeholders. The District adopted and implemented Citygate’s brownout service reduction plan. Citygate has been retained by the District to perform numerous additional engagements.
