Citygate is currently conducting a Standards of Coverage (SOC) study update, community risk assessment, and facility assessment for the City of Huntington Beach Fire Department to assist the Department in achieving agency accreditation with the Commission on Fire Accreditation International. In addition, the study is intended to establish current response performance, identify new targets for improvement, and serve as the basis for a new Strategic Community Risk Reduction Program that will identify and implement programs to mitigate risks and make the City a safer, healthier, and more resilient community. The facility assessment will assist in identifying modifications or use of existing facility space to reduce employee exposure to carcinogens. In addition to identifying specific facility needs, the assessment will form the baseline for future annual facility safety inspections. Citygate also performed the City’s 2017 SOC study.
