Carrboro <br /> Welcome and Introductions — BOCC Chair Barry Jacobs <br /> Chair Jacobs welcomed everyone and said that Commissioner Dorosin sends his <br /> regrets because he is unable to attend tonight. <br /> Introductions were made. <br /> 1. Orange County Chief's Association Strategic Plan Update <br /> Fire Chiefs' Chief's Association President Steve McCauley thanked the Board of <br /> County Commissioners for this meeting and their working relationship. <br /> A) Goals <br /> Steve McCauley reviewed each of the following goals, as listed in the Orange County <br /> Chief's Association Strategic Plan: <br /> • GOAL I: Ensuring Viable and Reliable Voice and Data Communication <br /> • GOAL II: Improving the 9-1-1 Telecommunications System and Center <br /> • GOAL III: Encouraging the Adoption of Measureable Emergency Response System <br /> Benchmarks and Reporting Norms <br /> • GOAL IV: Setting Service Standard Goals for Volunteer Fire Departments <br /> • GOAL V: Planning for a Countywide Training Facility <br /> • GOAL VI: Preparing a Multi-Hazard Risk Assessment Plan <br /> • GOAL VII: Building Better Relationships with Key Stakeholders <br /> • GOAL VIII: Fostering Increased Public Awareness <br /> Steve McCauley said part of the objective for Goal I is to provide radio coverage with <br /> building penetration throughout the County. He said there has been funding provided to <br /> create additional channels to address this communications need. <br /> He said a second objective for Goal I is to encourage the development of a mobile data <br /> network. He said this would allow command to view the location of all units, as well as water <br /> sources and other environmental factors. He said Pagetrack is the preferred choice for this <br /> service, and he asked the Board for their support in implementing this. <br /> He said one objective for Goal II is to work with Orange County to ensure deployment <br /> of a state of the art 911 communications center that is able to dispatch calls in 90 seconds or <br /> less 90 percent of the time. <br /> Steve McCauley said one objective for Goal IV is to ensure all Orange County residents <br /> can receive the maximum fire protection and home owners' insurance savings by improving <br /> individual department ISO ratings. He said there are several departments on the wait list for <br /> ratings change. <br /> He said one objective for Goal V is to provide a modern, centrally located training <br /> facility for firefighters and emergency services personnel. He said the chiefs would like to ask <br /> the County to set aside land for this. <br /> He said the last six months have seen great improvements with the addition of Jim <br /> Groves. He said relationships have improved, and there has been dramatic change in <br /> emergency services. <br /> Chair Jacobs said the Board appreciates hearing good things about the Fire Chiefs <br /> Association's improved relationship with Emergency Services. <br />
