i 18 1 2 6. The Fire Departments' Strategic Plan. 3 4 The Board of County Commissioners requested a timeline for the Emergency Services 5 Workgroup. There are many unknowns regarding the direction of the Workgroup, but the 6 charge and the timeline will be the first items discussed by the Emergency Services Workgroup 7 and will report back to the Board on February 7, 2012. 8 9 FINANCIAL IMPACT: The approval of the Charge for this Workgroup will have no financial 10 impact on the County. 11 12 RECOMMENDATION(S): The Manager recommends that the Board approve the proposed 13 Charge for the Emergency Services Workgroup, and give direction to staff as to changes in the 14 Charge. 15 16 17 Commissioner Jacobs said that it is important to note that one of the things that the 18 County is looking at for dealing with system improvements for EMS ambulance response times 19 is meaningful and analytical data. He suggested adding this to item #3. 20 Chair Pelissier suggested making this a separate item —the data elements. 21 Commissioner Foushee said that she does not disagree with Chair Pelissier but the 22 point that Commissioner Jacobs made makes it easier for the group to consider that data within 23 the scope of the charge. She would not want to see it separated. She would like to see#3 24 reworded such that it includes discussion and review of analytical data as it relates to response 25 times. 26 Chair Pelissier agreed. 27 A motion was made by Commissioner McKee, seconded by Commissioner Yuhasz to 28 approve the proposed Charge for the Emergency Services Workgroup, and give direction to 29 staff as to changes in the Charge; with the inclusion of listing Michael Talbert as facilitator of the 30 work group and adding the recommendation for meaningful data to be included in item#3. 31 VOTE: UNANIMOUS 32 33 c.
