Citygate conducted the first-ever independent Standards of Coverage evaluation of the Los Angeles Fire Department’s fire and emergency medical services deployment system, including the current system’s capacity to evolve over time as a very diverse metropolitan area. This analysis determined whether current fire station locations and crew/apparatus staffing are sufficient to meet the unique needs of the Department’s service area. A comprehensive community risk assessment was also included as part of the overall analysis.
