Fire Chief's Message:
As we begin the second decade of the 21st Century, fire service professionals continue to be challenged with making increasingly difficult decisions about the provision of a multitude of essential emergency and non- emergency services, including emergency medical and fire protection response, safety education and disaster preparedness, and inspection and code enforcement activities. Strategic Planning and evaluation of fire department services and programs is key to ensuring that limited resources are deployed in the most cost-effective manner while remaining standardized, efficient, and responsive to community needs.
Having retained prestigious CFAI Accreditation in 2010, the Department continues the ongoing process of service evaluation by working through the implementation of our Strategic Plan. Improving community preparedness, internal and external communications, maintaining current policies, revising our workforce plan, and improving our physical infrastructure are the fundamentals of our strategic planning efforts. On behalf of the members of the Santa Clara County Fire Department, I wish to express that we are proud to provide a valuable service to our communities. 2010 Annual Report
