8 The graphic on the previous page shows the relationships between the services provided by South Metro Fire Rescue Authority; the various funds of the Authority, and the various sources of revenue for the Authority.

Property tax and specific ownership taxes revenues transfers from the two Districts, interest on investments and fees charged for services (i.e. plan reviews, various permits, training class fees, fees charged for vehicle maintenance for outside agencies, and charges for certain types of responses) come into the General Fund (Fund 01). These revenues are used to fund South Metro Fire Rescue Authority, which provides fire, EMS, Public Education, Hazardous Materials response and First Responder service to the citizens of the Authority, and provide funds for Capital Projects, i.e. fire apparatus, stations and equipment.

The Ambulance Transport Fund (Fund 08) is an Enterprise Fund and provides ambulance transport services to visitors, workers and citizens of the Authority. There are 18.68 FTEs charged to this fund and paid from the revenues which are charged from base transport fees, mileage, and special services provided.

The Building Rental Fund (Fund 09) is an Enterprise Fund that provides for the operation of the Headquarters Building on East Mineral Avenue. The two upper floors of the building are leased to other government organizations. Rent is collected from the other entities and the Authority pays rent based on square footage occupied. Any charges specific to the Authority only are paid from the General Fund.

The South Metro Fire Safety Foundation is a separate non-profit organization which was formed by Parker Fire Protection District with a donation made by Adam and Dorothy Miller in the early 1990s. The connection between South Metro Fire Rescue Authority and the South Metro Safety Foundation (SMSF) is that the Executive Director of the non-profit is the Program Administrator in the Community Safety Services Division. The record keeping is done by Authority Finance Staff, and several positions on the Board of the non-profit are held by employees of the Authority and one position on the Board is held by a Board Member of the Authority. The Foundation provides lifesafety training to the community in CPR, babysitting first-aid, AED training, and driver training for teenagers and adults. These classes have a fee attached to them such that the SMFSF is self-sufficient financially.

10 11 As a result of the high quality of services provided, training standards, equipment, staffing, and related support functions, the Authority is among the leaders in the State of Colorado being one of eight departments in the state to receive the Certification from the Commission on Fire Accreditation International. The Authority has received the Government Finance Officers Association’s Distinguished Budget Award since inception of the Authority in 2009. We will continue to participate in this program.

Personnel are provided with constant training to keep their skills at the highest level. The Authority has modern training facilities that includes two class rooms, an 84 seat auditorium, a five-story training tower, a burn building for live fire training, a propane simulation station, and a driver operator training track. Additional state of the art training class rooms with media centers are available in the Authority headquarters building.

Summary of Major Goals for 2014

The major goal to be accomplished in 2014 is to continue to carefully monitor expenses and evaluate the necessity and benefit to the Authority of any expenditures made. The re- building of Station 31 is budgeted for 2014. This is a station that is basically a residential type building that is too small for the required crew and apparatus. This building project does not require any additions to staff or apparatus.

A goal implemented in 2014 is a revision of the compensation philosophy such that line members will be paid at the 85th percentile of our surveyed departments using the actual proposed increases for the budgeted year. Staff members will be paid at the 85th percentile of Mountain States surveys of public and private entities with job descriptions comparable to the Authority jobs.

Another goal is the installation of a new Life Safety Bureau software to allow customer to access and request plan reviews on line and to better manage the electronic plans.

The authority also is replacing 10 vehicles in 2014 which includes a pumper, 2 staff vehicles, a chief vehicle, a brush truck, two medic units, two wildland vehicles and a tower for a total of $2.9 million.

Budget Summary for Expenditures:

The proposed budget requirements for fiscal year 2014 for all funds (General Fund, Capital Projects, Agency Pension, Building Rental Fund, Ambulance Transport Fund and the Special Revenue Funds) total $70,582,300 which is an increase of $10,618,539 from the estimated 2013 actuals. This increase is due to the change in the compensation philosophy, an increase in benefits and an increase in capital expenditures.

Total fund expenditures for all funds are shown below: EXPENDITURES BY TYPE ESTIMATED BUDGET 2013 2014

2014 Significant Changes:

Salaries and Benefits:

There was an increase in salaries for 2014 due to changes in market and compensation philosophy from the average of the prior year actual changes of the four departments surveyed to the 85th percentile of the five districts/departments that were surveyed. The increase in salaries is $1.3 million or 4.14%. The benefits increase of $1.0 million or 10.21% is due to increases in health insurance and LTD insurance premiums. Medical insurance increases were budgeted at 20%. Major changes to the offered plans were made as well as the addition of a High-Deductible Plan and HSA accounts.

13 Supplies and Expenses:

There is an increase in supplies and expense of $693,493. Most of this increase is due to the cost of utilities going up and purchasing more supplies for the ambulance fund for the ARM car.

Capital:

Total capital expenditures budgeted for 2014 of $7,585,285 includes the re-building of Station 31, at a cost of $2,500,000. There is $2,912,000 of replacement apparatus and equipment. The Ambulance Transport Fund will be spending $200,000 on refurbishment of two , and $60,000 on replacement of patient prams.

Lease Payments:

There is one small remaining Parker Fire Protection District lease that will be paid off in 2014 in the amount of $47,978.

Ending Fund Balance:

The Authority will have approximately $33.1 million in General Operating Funds and $18.5 million in Capital Projects Funds at the end of 2013. The fund balance is cash available for expenditures. The General Operating Funds are approximately 58.1% of the Authority’s General Fund annual operating budget. The Capital Projects funds are a combination of interest earnings and previous transfers from the General Fund.

There are no transfers to the Capital Project Fund expected in the next three years because of the transfer made in 2012.

Budget Summary for Revenues:

Total fund net revenues for all funds are shown below:

Property Taxes:

The main source of revenue for the General Fund are transfers of property tax revenues and specific ownership tax from the two Special Revenue Funds for each District.

Due to the high reliance on property taxes for operations of the Authority, the uncertainty in the real estate market has a major impact on our revenue stream. The Authority always has flexibility in our schedule for building new stations and staffing those stations. If the property values in the Authority decrease as in the past few years, there would be delays in the construction schedule and the hiring of new firefighters to staff those stations. The replacement of vehicles and equipment would be re-evaluated with possible delays. Salaries could be frozen and replacement positions would be carefully evaluated before they are filled. The good news is that our assessed values increased for the 2014 budget by 4.17%. The reports on the residential real estate market continues to show improvements.

The following graph shows the changes in total actual property tax revenues within the two Districts supporting the Authority:

Property Tax Revenues

Specific Ownership Tax: The second major source of General Fund revenues is the transfer of Specific Ownership Tax revenues from the two Districts supporting the Authority. A reduction of $102,345 is budgeted for 2014 from the estimated 2013 receipts. The new car registrations in the state were up considerably for 2013. We budget conservatively on this tax as the continued increase in this tax is not guaranteed.

16 Revenues from Other External Sources:

The revenues from external sources totaling $7,370,352 are made up of Ambulance Transport Fund fees, rents received from the Building Rental Fund and the Fleet Maintenance repairs which are charges for vehicle maintenance services performed for other fire departments or districts.

The revenue for the Ambulance Transport Fund is based on the number of transports and the averages for mileage per transport and other services charged for each transport. The number of transports budgeted is 5,975. The revenues for 2013 were considerably high than 2012 due to a change in medical protocols from a neighboring district and it is expected to continue.

The outside revenues for the Fleet Services to external customers are budgeted, the same as in 2013 at $240,000.

Permit and plan review fees are the fees charged by the Life Safety Bureau for commercial construction, remodels and fire sprinkler system installations. The budgeted number has been increased from the 2013 budget by $37,000 as the fees are being increased for 2014 and building has increased in the area.

Rental Income:

Rental Income budgeted for 2014 of $150,000 is derived, from the rental of cell tower sites on various fire stations and the communications tower. The Authority has community rooms in many of their facilities throughout the Authority. These rooms are available for rent by non-for-profit entities. Community organizations must pay a refundable deposit upon rental.

Other Revenues:

Other 2014 budgeted revenues totaling $703,000 include reimbursements for services such as Urban Search and Rescue (USAR) incidents, Wildfire callouts, the SWAT Team and reimbursements for worker’s compensation and LTD payments.

Summary:

Please see the summary of revenues and expenses for the entire Authority by fund and the Total Authority on pages 82-84.

The proposed budget for 2014 allows the Authority to provide a high level of service to our community while minimizing expenditures.

Recognition is given to all staff members, division or bureau managers, and coordinators who have effectively devoted their time and energy toward the development of the annual budget.

BUDGET INFORMATION

The Authority and Its Services:

The Authority operates under Colorado Revised Statutes, Title 32, as a separate municipal corporation and is managed by a seven member Board of Directors composed of a President, Vice President, Secretary, Treasurer, and three members. The Board hires a Fire Chief who serves at the pleasure of the Board to manage day-to-day operations of the Authority. The Authority is a stand-alone entity and is not part of any city or town government that we serve.

The Fire Authority was formed in 2008 by a Memorandum of Agreement between Parker Fire Protection District and South Metro Fire Rescue. In 2012 the agreement was amended for a full merger to occur on January 1, 2016. At the time of the full merger, based on projected growth in assessed values, a drop in property tax revenues of $4.5 to $6 million in property tax revenues will occur if South Metro Fire Rescue does not have a mill levy election to increase their mill levy.

Demographics:

The Authority is located on the south and east edge of the Denver Metropolitan Area. The Authority serves all of the Towns of Parker and Foxfield and the Cities of Centennial, Greenwood Village, Cherry Hills Village, Castle Pines North, Lone Tree, and some unincorporated areas in both Douglas and Arapahoe counties. It includes the business parks of Meridian, Inverness, and portions of the Denver Tech Center and Park Meadows Mall.

There is commercial development throughout the Authority and the Authority includes several residential developments with some areas of rural residential development. The area is a fairly affluent area with homes in the middle to upper price range. The Authority, in addition to the single family home developments, includes a large number of apartment and townhouse developments. The tables below show some data concerning the populations of Douglas and Arapahoe Counties. Approximately 46% of the Authority is in Douglas County and 54% is in Arapahoe County.

Within the Authority there are many recreational opportunities. The Cherry Creek Trail and portions of the Cherry Creek Reservoir are within the Authority. This can be used for horseback riding, biking, running, walking, boating and swimming. The Parker area is geared toward horseback riding with the Colorado Horse Park just at the edge of the Authority and a horse arena in the middle of the Town of Parker. The Authority has a wealth of annual events like the Carriage Parade in December, the Parker Country Festival in June, and the Taste of Parker in September. The Fiddler’s Green Amphitheater, located in Greenwood Village hosts many events throughout the summer. We also have many wonderful restaurants to tickle anyone’s fancy and, of course, the Park Meadows Shopping Area.

22 Services Provided:

The Authority is a multi-service authority providing not only fire suppression and emergency medical services but also contracts with the State and Federal governments to provide wildland fire suppression services and urban search and rescue services to the Federal Division of Homeland Security. The Authority is part of a regional Hazardous Materials team. The Authority is also part of a regional Metropolitan Medical Response System (MMRS) and in that capacity provides mass decontamination services to the metropolitan area in the event of a biological terrorist attack or similar event. Through our Community Safety Services Division, the Authority provides inspections and plan reviews for fire safety systems in businesses and developments and provides educational programs in fire safety to businesses and schools. They also perform fire investigations and prepare court ready documentation.

To deal with emergencies, both fire and medical, the Authority’s Operations Division staffs a team of professional firefighters and paramedics 24 hours a day with skills and equipment necessary to deal with a wide variety of emergencies. Approximately 91 of the 297 professional firefighters are certified as Advanced Life Support (ALS) Paramedics, while 100% of the remaining fire suppression personnel are certified at the Basic Life Support (BLS) level. Under the guidance of physician advisors, emergency medical service personnel (all of whom are firefighters) maintain a highly certified skill level through several specialized training programs.

Fire protection and emergency medical services are provided to an estimated population of 202,316 scattered over 177.4 square miles in Douglas and Arapahoe counties of Colorado.

Ambulance transport services are provided for medical emergencies that occur within the Authority boundaries. These services are provided for a fee to the patient.

The Fleet Services Facility performs fleet maintenance services for the Authority and for other fire departments and districts along the front-range on a time and materials basis.

The Training facility provides training for our own firefighters as well as for others on a fee basis. The facility is also rented to other districts and departments for them to conduct their own training.

It should also be noted that the Authority provides babysitting, CPR, and first aid training, as well as teen and adult driver training, to citizens through our non-profit arm, the South Metro Fire Safety Foundation. This non-profit arm was formed in 1990 with a donation from the Estate of Adam and Dorothy Miller. They were school teachers who devoted their lives to the education of students in Douglas County. The Parker Fire Protection District Board of Directors recognized this passion and assigned the bequeath to life safety education.

Budget Year

This graph shows 5 years of Property Tax Revenues for the Parker Fire Protection District. The mill levy that the District assesses was set by a vote of the electors in 1998 at 13.978 for all of the General Fund and Capital Projects Fund expenditures. There is not a separate mill levy for capital. For the 2014 year, the Parker Fire Board voted to drop the mill levy by one mill to 12.978 thus reducing the revenues by $1.4 million.

The historical increase in Tax Revenue has averaged 6.89% per year for the last 10 years. The average for the last 5 years has been 0.19%. The District has re-examined its growth rate in assessed values for the future in light of the economic downturn and losses in real estate values. The assessed values for 2014 increased by 2.41%. There has been analysis that the residential real estate values are increasing. The Authority is watching this carefully to determine future growth percentages.

The graph above shows 5 years of property tax revenues for South Metro Fire Rescue. There is a lot of commercial property development in the South Metro District. The District includes a portion of the Denver Tech Center and the retail development around the Park Meadows Mall. The mill levy assessed is 9.25 mills.

The historical increase in Tax Revenues has averaged 6.56% per year for the last 10 years. The average for the last 5 years has been 0.19%. The District has re-evaluated the assumptions for future growth in assessed values due to the downturn in the economy and the losses in property values. The increase in assessed values for the 2014 budget was 5.33%. There seems to be a shift to improvement in property values. The Authority will be monitoring this carefully to determine future growth for planning.

STATEGIC PLAN AND CRITICAL ISSUES

Executive Summary

In May, 2008, Parker Fire District & South Metro Fire Rescue merged to form one organization under the name of South Metro Fire Rescue Authority (SMFRA), proudly serving the cities of Castle Pines North, Centennial, Cherry Hills Village, Foxfield, Greenwood Village, Lone Tree, Parker, and portions of unincorporated Arapahoe and Douglas Counties. As a new fire agency, it is important for SMFRA to hear the expectations of its communities and establish the mission, vision, and philosophical foundation that will guide our organization into the future. This Strategic Plan provides that framework and will become a living document that responds to the changing needs of our community and constantly seeks opportunities for improvement.

27 SMFRA will continue the constant pursuit of excellence established by its founding members through the process of becoming accredited through the Commission on Fire Accreditation International (CFAI). This Strategic Plan fulfills one important requirement for accreditation. The plan is aligned with the Standard of Cover and Fire and Emergency Services Self Assessment Manual (FESSAM) documents in order to ensure that the fundamental principle of accreditation – to improve the quality of services through a continuous self-evaluation process – becomes part of our culture. The categories contained within the FESSAM provide the structure for the high-level goals to be achieved by the various functions throughout the organization. Individual unit, bureau, and division plans can be referenced for more detailed objectives and action plans.

The formation of this Strategic Plan has been a collaborative process where input was received from community and business stakeholders to gather input on prioritization of services, expectations, strengths, and opportunities for improvement. This input was provided to an internal group of employees representing all areas of the organization who utilized the information to support an organizational assessment. Functional areas then benefited from the combined efforts and reports from these groups to further evaluate their opportunities for improvement and provide recommendations for the strategic plan. The expertise of all participants was invaluable in shaping this plan and contributing to the future of SMFRA.

This strategic plan provides our best attempt to look into the future and determine the direction of the organization and the many services we want to accomplish to improve the safety of our community. The future holds many uncertainties and there could be significant changes in direction as we progress through the planning period. As an example, the economic outlook will play a major role in shaping our service delivery. Even during the period that stakeholders were gathered for input, the full impact of the economic downturn was not fully realized. The impact of those losses in revenue and the rate of recovery may dictate whether we continue to operate under a “fire authority” governance structure or move to a consolidated fire district. If, and when, our strategy is changed, we will update the Governance and Administration Category so that our citizens know of our new direction.

Significant Challenges/Threats Some of the major challenges and threats realized through the strategic planning process include: • Assessed property values throughout the region, which provide a major source of SMFRA revenue, are expected to decline significantly in 2012, with an unknown rate of recovery. • New construction, which provides revenues and dictates certain staffing levels, has significantly declined prior to the start of this strategic planning period and the rate of recovery is unknown. • The rising costs in both health care and worker’s compensation insurance will continue to have significant impacts on revenues. Similarly, the uncertainty in future national health care models will have an unknown impact on ambulance collection rates. • The space and functionality of the Joint Services Facility, which houses our fleet maintenance, and training services, is beginning to be maximized and will be challenged to meet future needs. • Fleet maintenance services are challenged to keep up with current demand and seek opportunities to bring in outside revenue. • Several capital improvement or replacement projects for SMFRA facilities, vehicles and equipment have not been included in this strategic plan. Deferring these costs may result in higher expenditures in later years and a decreased ability to effectively meet current and future needs.

28 • There is a continuing challenge to add partners and other agencies to the MetCom authority model for improved cost sharing and regionalization of dispatch services. • Establishing effective automatic aid agreements with surrounding agencies and improving communication with other dispatch centers is a continual challenge that threatens our ability to quickly and efficiently respond to emergencies, particularly along the borders of the jurisdiction. • Past poor performance of employee pensions has resulted in the need for employees to stay in the workforce longer, which impacts overall promotional opportunities and mobility within the organization, as well as an increase in injuries. • The creation of the fire authority is still evolving as we continue to institutionalize the new culture and experience change. Effective internal and external communications will continue to be a challenge as we move forward.

Major Recommendations Below are recommendations developed from major themes or program goals that appeared during the creation of this strategic plan and will be priorities for the organization in the coming years: • Take a proactive approach to future economic trends, continually evaluate, and adjust organizational direction as needed. • Determine the future governance model for the organization. • Develop a more dynamic emergency response deployment model that accounts for the diversity of the various communities served and is adaptable to future changes. • Develop a facilities plan that prioritizes the repair and replacement of all facilities, addresses the future needs of programs, and is flexible to take advantage of opportunities as they are presented. • Develop a community risk reduction outreach plan that integrates the prevention, mitigation, and emergency response components of community safety and is embraced by all personnel. • Decrease the rate and recovery time of employee injuries. • Pursue and improve aid agreements with neighboring agencies and seek opportunities to regionalize dispatch and special team services. • Institutionalize the self-evaluation model of accreditation and integrate into the planning, budgeting, and performance improvement processes.

This Strategic Plan is one element of SMFRA’s plan to reduce the risks in our communities and protect the lives and property of our citizens and those who visit. SMFRA is committed to collaborating with our stakeholders, providing the most effective services in a financially-responsible manner, and continually evaluating our performance in the constant pursuit of excellence. We know that bringing together Parker Fire District and South Metro Fire Rescue was a positive move toward improving the services to the community and becoming more financially stable. We are continuing to discover the benefits and, over the next several years, we will continue to find ways to make it even more successful.

29 Operating Imperatives:

Quality Service: The service level incorporates national standards for fire protection response, emergency medical response, prevention, education, and support activities.

Fiscal Responsibility: There must be a balance maintained between spending and providing a strong service for the community.

Concern for the Customers: Our customers are the citizens of our District as well as those who work or travel in it. They expect a certain level of service and would like to have a high level of quality care during their emergency and in all services we offer.

Concern for the Members: We should strive to create an environment that is challenging and rewarding. The satisfaction that our members feel towards the job they do will be reflected in how they treat internal and external customers.

Master Strategic Goals:

These master strategic goals are the over-arching aspirations that remind the organization why we’re here and provide the backbone for the goals and objectives of individual programs. All program goals found in this strategic plan should be driven by our organizational philosophies and fall within one of these master strategic goals.

Strategic Goal One Reduce the frequency of and impact to the community from fires, medical emergencies, and natural/man-made disasters. Strategic Goal Two Ensure cost-effective prevention, mitigation, and emergency response services.

Strategic Goal Three Maintain a customer-based focus in the delivery of all services.

Strategic Goal Four Improve collaboration with all public service and government agencies we impact or serve.

Strategic Goal Five Improve employee health, safety, and recovery.

Strategic Goal Six Pursue opportunities to examine organizational programs, activities and practices, compare with professional associations or industry leaders, and continually improve effectiveness and service delivery.

30 Organizational Goals:

Using the focus and guidance of the organizational philosophies, master strategic goals, and internal/external stakeholder feedback, the following organizational goals were established for this strategic planning period. Goals are contained within the most appropriate accreditation category and criterion, with an “other strategic functions” category provided at the end for programs that were not well represented within the accreditation model. Each category or criterion contains an introduction that provides an overview of the major efforts or challenges expected in the coming years, the mission statement of the functional area assigned to the category when available, background for the goals listed, and any goals that do not have a specific or measurable outcome. More detailed goals, objectives and action plans can be found within individual division, bureau, and unit plans.

I. GOVERNANCE AND ADMINISTRATION During the five-year period of this strategic plan, SMFRA’s governance and administration will be continuing to integrate the vision, mission, and values into the culture of the organization. There will also be significant changes in the governance structure of SMFRA. Specifically, the IGA forming the fire authority states that the two fire districts will be merged into a single fire district by January 1, 2013. This merger is accompanied by a need to form new director districts and adjust the mill levies of one or more of the original fire districts. The ability to complete this final step of the merger may be challenged by the economy and the corresponding decline in property taxes. Therefore, the priority in the early years of this strategic plan will be to implement the anticipated efficiencies of the merger that will result in cost savings, such as improved deployment of apparatus and the ability to allow attrition in line and staff personnel.

Governing Body

o Goal: Provide organizational philosophies and direction through the annual review and approval of the strategic plan and standard of cover starting in 2011. This was completed in 2011 and is now in the annual review process.

o Goal: Merge the South Metro Fire Rescue and Parker Fire Protection Districts into a single fire protection district by January 1, 2016.

o New Goal: Conduct process to select a new fire chief. This is 10% complete. Scheduled to be completed at the end of 2014.

Agency Administration

o Goal: Using the budget and accreditation self-assessment tools, annually evaluate the resources and staffing needed to efficiently and effectively manage the various services provided by SMFRA. This is an annual evaluation that is completed each year.

31 II. ASSESSMENT AND PLANNING A critical part of SMFRA’s community risk reduction efforts is to understand the risks that are present in the community, correlate those risks to the community demographics with emphasis on high-risk populations, and focus programs to mitigate those risks. The Planning & Analysis Unit is dedicated toward those efforts and will help to guide methods to improve the critical data used to focus organizational programs and decisions. This effort will require a strong collaboration between Operations and Community Safety Services staff and a detailed analysis of our community’s demographics, past emergency incidents, and future trends. Opportunities to increase the Unit’s staffing, partner with regional universities and other data-gathering organizations (e.g., DRCOG), and collaborate with the performance evaluation efforts of MetCom will be sought to make these efforts more successful. SMFRA will also pursue opportunities to collaborate with other fire service agencies to share best practices and establish uniformity in performance evaluation methods.

Documentation of Area Characteristics

o Goal: Using the results of the 2010 census, update SMFRA’s demographic information by December 31, 2012. Obtain updated estimates in 2015 to prepare for the standard of cover major update. Overall demographic information was updated in 2012 as part of the Risk Assessment and Mitigation Plan. Will obtain updates in 2015 for the next accreditation cycle.

o Goal: Implement cooperative efforts that will provide the equivalent of increasing staffing by adding .5 analysts by 2013. Planning and Analysis GIS Tech position is now being provided through MetCom, which results in an overall increase of at least .25 FTE’s dedicated to the function. GIS/analytical services have also been regionalized to , which further increases the overall pool of staff dedicated to these functions and improves consistency and interoperability throughout the region.

Fire/Non-Fire Risk Assessment and Response Strategies

o Goal: Develop a dashboard system for indicating the status of critical performance measures by July 1, 2011. Completion moved to 2013. 50% completed. First Watch performance information is available to line personnel, along with quarterly/annual official stats. A beta version of a formalized dashboard has been developed for executive staff/board. Waiting on technological solutions such as SharePoint to improve viewing and updating. Manager training on performance indicators has been identified as a priority prior to building a dashboard.

o Goal: Develop and implement a data and report writing improvement plan for occupancy and incident information by 2012. A policy is in effect to address overall report quality. A peer review system is in place for special team responses. Occupancy information is being cleaned up by fire inspectors during business inspections. BC’s have been trained to improve false alarm report reviews. On-going analyses will continue to bring issues to light and suggest further improvements.

32 o Goal: Improve risk assessment methods and link risks to community demographics and mitigation efforts to help target resources and programs by 2013 50% completed. FEMA’s Risk Assessment & Mitigation Plan has been completed. Specific risk reduction programs started for false alarms, wildfire, and senior living facilities. Priority is 2014/2015 will be to refine commercial occupancy risk assessment with new permitting/occupancy software.

o Goal: Incorporate GIS capabilities into ICS Planning Section for extended incidents by 2013. 100% completed. Services primarily provided through MetCom, particularly on wildfire incidents by accessing through IDT. Type IV IMT to determine continued needs and improvements.

Strategic Planning

o Goal: Provide an opportunity for stakeholders to participate in the next strategic planning development process in 2015.

o Goal: Prepare for re-accreditation in 2015.

III. GOALS AND OBJECTIVES SMFRA has developed a 5-year planning cycle that is intended to link together the Fire and Emergency Service Self-Assessment Manual (FESSAM), each functional area’s guiding plans (e.g., unit, bureau, or division plan), performance measurement, budget cycle, accreditation annual compliance report, and annual Standard of Cover (SOC) and Strategic Plan updates. It is based on the alignment of the re-accreditation and strategic planning cycles over a 5-year period.

In years 1-4 (2011 – 2014), the organization implements the current year plan, while beginning the following year’s planning cycle in early spring in order to prepare the budget request and continually receive input about where the function or organization should be heading. Later in the year, as the following year’s final budget becomes known, the FESSAM, SOC, and Strategic Plan can be updated and ready to implement on January 1st of the following year. This late-year focus also provides the organization and functional managers a framework for conversations with their staff about current- year performance and direction for the following year.

33

In year 5 (2015), the organization develops a new 5-year strategic plan and a major update to the Standard of Cover, and applies for re-accreditation. The major documents need to be completed by mid-year so that SMFRA can continue to be re-accredited early in the first year of the strategic plan.

As shown below, the various planning documents overlap and point to critical performance indicators for the organization to measure. The development of a dashboard system will help to monitor the progress of performance and provide an indication of the overall health of the organization.

34

The purpose of integrating all these planning tools together is to institutionalize the philosophy of accreditation, which is to improve our services through a continuous process of self-evaluation. By continually looking forward, setting goals, measuring our progress, and adjusting our path, we can put that philosophy and our mission and vision into action. Then we can show that we are actively working toward providing the best protection of lives and property, in a progressive manner, and are able to adapt to the changing needs of our community.

IV. FINANCIAL RESOURCES Mission – The mission of the Finance Division (comprised of Finance, Accounting, Accounts Payable, Payroll ,and Fixed Assets) is:

TO: Provide accurate, reliable, timely, supportive, and cost-effective financial and accounting services.

IN A WAY THAT: • Successfully manages and protects the Authority’s physical and monetary assets; • Provides reliable and timely financial information to the Authority and the community we serve; • Maintains accurate historical records of all Authority financial activities; • Serves citizens, employees, stations, departments and the community through accurate and timely processing of accounts payable, payroll and accounting transactions; • Facilitates intra-departmental teamwork, professional growth, and personal integrity; • Adds value to the Authority by providing financial expertise and support; • Ensures compliance with local, state and federal laws, policies, regulations, and reporting requirements;

SO THAT: We support the mission and priorities of the Authority by providing the highest quality financial services.

Financial Planning

The potential economic forecasts during this strategic planning period may present the most challenging financial situation in the history of Parker Fire Protection District or South Metro Fire Rescue. SMFRA’s revenues are based primarily on property taxes, which are re-assessed every two years. The reassessment in 2011, which will dictate revenues in 2012, is expected to result in a major decline in revenues, with some experts predicting up to a 20% reduction in commercial property values. The more critical unknown is how quickly property values will recover in subsequent years. Additional variables add even more uncertainty, such as the effects of health care reform on the cost- recovery rates for EMS transports and future state ballot initiatives that may further restrict government revenues and spending. Also, the rate of recovery of new construction will have an impact on revenues and staffing levels.

Regardless of the exact economic trend, we know that a significant drop in revenues is coming and we have the unique opportunity to prepare now. Therefore, in the first years of this strategic planning

35 period, SMFRA will be re-evaluating capital expenses, continually finding organizational efficiencies that reduce operating expenses, exploring grant funding opportunities and encouraging the attrition in personnel that was anticipated during the formation of the fire authority.

o Goal: Annually re-evaluate the revenue projections that provide the basis for this strategic plan, with particular emphasis in years of re-assessment of property values. 100% completed. New financial predictions developed through 2017 and updated annually. Several models developed to assist with 2016 merger.

Financial Practices

During this strategic planning period, the Finance Division will be focusing on improving the financial tracking and reporting systems so that they are more user-friendly, allow managers to better manage their accounts, require less paperwork, provide real-time information, and interface with the general ledger. Incorporating more dashboard indicators will also help the organization know the status of overall financial health.

o Goal: Obtain the GFOA Certificate of Achievement for Excellence in Financial Reporting for the Comprehensive Annual Financial Report on an annual basis. Awarded the Certificate of Achievement for Excellence in Financial Reporting for the Authority’s 2010, 2011 & 2012 CAFR. Will continue to apply on an annual basis.

o Goal: Obtain the GFOA Distinguished Budget Presentation Award for the Authority’s Annual Budget on an annual basis. Awarded the Distinguished Budget Presentation Award for the Authority’s 2009, 2010, 2011, 2012 and 2013 Budgets. Will continue to apply on an annual basis.

o Goal: Annually pursue federal, state, and local grants to assist in supplementing the Authority’s operating and capital improvement budgets. In 2011 received a $93,000 Grant to fund developing a risk assessment plan, conduct wildfire preplans and state credentialing of the system. Recovered ~$34,000 in regular salaries. In 2012 successfully obtained $1.8M in grant funding to fire firefighters and purchase hazmat equipment and LifePaks.

o Goal: Develop and implement an improved system for reporting and managing accounts by 2011. New budget software was implemented in 2012 to improve the budgeting and on-going management processes.

o Goal: Develop and implement an on-line purchasing store that interfaces with the general ledger, has shopping card functionality, allows for approval processes and provides accurate inventory information by 2012. Research into this goal revealed that purchasing, or developing an on-line store interfacing with the general ledger would be cost prohibitive. The on-line store previously used by Parker Fire has been placed back into service. It provides all the desired features except for

36 the general ledge interface. Due to the cost issues involved we will continue to use the current on-line store system and record inventory movement into the general ledger via journal entry.

o Goal: Evaluate alternative models for the warehousing function to improve functionality and efficiency by 2013. Quartermaster position filled in 2012.

Resource Allocation

o Goal: Maintain a cash balance of not less than 25% of the general fund expenditures. A Cash Balance in excess of 25% of expenditures in the General Fund is being maintained

o Goal: Complete the payment of Parker Fire Protection District Lease Purchases by 2014. 99% complete. Payments are being made as scheduled.

o Goal: Complete the payment of South Metro Fire Rescue District Certificates of Participation by 2016. 100% complete. The Certificates of Participation were paid off in 2012.

V. PROGRAMS Fire Suppression

During this strategic planning period, it will be important for operations to continually find ways to meet stakeholder expectations to provide a quick, professional response to fire emergencies. This will require the analysis and evaluation of all components of total response time. Dispatch time must be minimized by working seamlessly with surrounding dispatch agencies and turnout times must be minimized without adversely impacting firefighter safety. Each station response district must be fully analyzed to identify where future improvements can decrease travel times. Deployment strategies must continually evolve so that unique characteristics and demographics of our jurisdiction - and its 17 response zones – are considered when deploying types and numbers of resources, rather than applying the same model to all areas/zones. New hazards are also expected to be added to the jurisdiction and it will be important to balance the need for us to increase our capabilities and costs to protect those hazards versus the developer’s responsibility to provide the infrastructure and systems that help minimize the hazard.

o Goal: Conduct an annual analysis of apparatus deployment plan. 2010 Annual Review – No major revisions made; ALS capabilities are now defaulted to each station district. 2011 Annual Review – Changes made to EMS supervisor locations, double medic units and Tender 39. 2012 Annual Review – The benchmarking committee completed their reports and will be evaluated in 2013. 2013 Annual Review – Medic units re-distributed, dive unit relocated, water tenders moved and ARM car deployed.

37 o Goal: Conduct a detailed analysis of each station district to find travel time efficiencies, evaluate deployment strategies, and determine future needs by 2012. 10% Complete in 2010, several work groups formed to begin addressing the issue. 75% Complete in 2011, Completed areas: 36, 37, 38, 40, 43, 46. 35 is in progress. Future analyses will be conducted on an as needed basis for new development, performance issues or changes in access roads. 75% Complete in 2012, Overview of 31, 32, 33, 35 general response area. Truck, BC and medic unit models were evaluated in 2012. Future analyses will be conducted on as-needed basis for new development, performance issues, changes in access roads, etc. 75% Complete in 2013, Several scenarios evaluated during feasibility study with Littleton and Englewood. o Goal: Develop alternative deployment strategies for urban, suburban, and rural population densities and specific station district demands by 2012. 10% complete in 2010 – Began forming workgroups. 50% complete in 2011, 2012 – This effort put on hold to focus on critical deployment changes needed for merger in 2016. 50% complete in 2013 – ARM car deployed in 2013. Will continue evaluation during re- write of standard of cover in 2014/2015 o Goal: Develop criteria for dual-company stations (i.e., multiple engines and/or trucks) by 2012. 10% complete in 2010. – Began forming workgroups. 50% complete in 2011, 2012 – This effort put on hold to focus on critical deployment changes needed for merger in 2016. 100% completed in 2013 – Threshold established in 2,500 calls. o Goal: Reduce turnout times so that all personnel and units are within the ranges specified in the Standard of Cover by 2013. 50% complete in 2010 – System to produce daily reports on exceptions to the turnout time. 90% complete in 2011, 2012 – Quality control and data collection methods are complete. Actual turnout times have dropped into the acceptable range. 100% complete in 2013 – Quality control and data collection methods are complet. Actual turnout times have dropped into the acceptable range overall. o Goal: Reduce dispatch time delays with neighboring agencies by 2014. 50% complete in 2011 – Littleton delays have been eliminated. Working toward CAD-to- CAD interfaces to reduce delays with primary PSAPs in Douglas County, with DOCO Sheriff, Aurora and Arapahoe County expected in 1st quarter of 2015.

38 Fire Prevention/Life Safety & Fire Investigation Programs

Mission – The mission of the Life Safety Bureau is to enhance community safety through the application of the adopted Fire Codes, using the “4 E” model:

• Incorporating engineered design elements into our buildings. • Educating our customers as to the method and value of maintaining these systems and incorporating safe practices within their occupancies. • Enforcing the Code when engineering and educational methodologies are unsuccessful. • Regularly evaluating our processes and adopted Codes and Standards.

Much of the strategic plan period for the Life Safety Bureau will be focused on carrying out of the direction given to each functional area (new construction, existing building inspections, hazmat compliance, fire investigations) in 2010 and continuing to monitor program effectiveness and long- term impact on community safety. The current decline in new construction and the corresponding plan reviews and inspections will be closely monitored, as it will have a direct impact on staffing levels. Also, the first year of the strategic planning period will provide a good overview of the quantity and quality of business inspections that are completed, providing further refinement to the program. New methods to improve inspection staff efficiency and inspection/data quality will also be explored, as well as the most effective method to address fire investigation workload. Staff succession planning and management training will also be a priority.

The strategic planning period will also see the publication of two new fire codes and aggressive efforts will be made to pursue uniform adoptions throughout the jurisdiction and region within a year of publication. A particular emphasis will be given to encouraging the adoption and improving the application of residential sprinkler requirements. SMFRA will also continue to encourage staff to participate in the local, state, and national code development and legislative processes in order to have a positive influence on future community safety regulations.

o Goal: Obtain P.O.S.T. certification of two fire investigation personnel by 2013. Evaluating feasibility/need in 2014.

Public Education Program

Mission – (Life Safety Education) - Based on national and local trends, work cohesively as a team and collaboratively with external partners to reduce risk in our community while using resources efficiently.

Mission – (Safety Foundation) – The Adam and Dorothy Miller Lifesafety Education Center, Inc. is a non-profit organization, also doing business as the South Metro Safety foundation, dedicated to the support and augmentation of education for the general public in lifesafety and in fire and accident prevention with the objective of reducing injuries, loss of lives, and property damage.

SMFRA stakeholders value the educational programs offered to the community, particularly those focused on fire/injury prevention for children and business safety. In conjunction with the South Metro Safety Foundation, SMFRA will continue to offer the common programs that have been shown to be effective throughout the country such as child passenger safety, senior citizen fire/injury prevention, business safety wardens, CPR, public access to defibrillation, first aid, juvenile firesetter intervention, wildfire mitigation, and teen driving safety. Additional programs will be offered based

40 on specific hazards occurring within our communities or new opportunities for the prevention of future deaths and injuries, such as residential fire sprinklers. Staffing of the Life Safety Education unit will present a challenge to the amount and scope of programs offered, so there will also be a focus on integrating key education activities into the duties of emergency response personnel and other community safety programs, expanding mass media and web-based opportunities, and continuing partnerships with regional coalitions. There will also be focused efforts to increase collaboration between SMFRA Life Safety Education staff and the Safety Foundation in citizen outreach efforts and events.

o Goal: Evaluate the vacant Life Safety Educator position to determine the appropriate time to fill the vacancy or implement temporary alternatives by 2012. 100% in 2011 – 2 vacant educator positions have been eliminated; re-strategizing the focus and delivery methods of programs to be more efficient with remaining staff.

This data will be used to assist station commanders to build education plans predicated on a district's unique incident trends, demographics, and hazards/risks. District specific plans will begin to be developed in the latter part of 2011 and completed by the mid-part of 2012. 25% complete in 2011, 2012, 2013 - Initial risk assessment has been completed. Will complete 4 or 5 station-specific plans each year to identify target audiences and appropriate programs. CORRP (Coordinated Occupancy Risk Reduction Program) has brought together stations, educators, and inspectors in high-risk occupancies. Educators are liaisons to specific stations and having discussions on appropriate programs.

o Goal: Increase opportunities for Safety Foundation collaboration with community partners and representation at one event within each SMFRA community by 2012. 100% in 2010 - The Foundation has worked with each community in 2010 & 2011 and will continue annually. Car seat program has also been transferred to Foundation in 2012 and has been successful in building additional partnerships to support the program. This is an Annual Program.

Emergency Medical Services

Mission – South Metro Fire Rescue Authority is dedicated to providing excellence in emergency pre-hospital medicine.

EMS calls account for a large portion of SMFRA’s service demand, and internal and external stakeholders know that quality patient care needs to be an organizational priority. During this strategic planning period, efforts will be made to expand the advanced life support capabilities throughout the jurisdiction, refine dispatch protocols for medical emergencies, and improve quality assurance and performance analysis capabilities. Also, a more defined career path within EMS that translates into the overall career opportunities within SMFRA will be explored.

41 Conversion of a current part-time employee to full time may help with transport fee collection rates, which will be evaluated over time. Also, internal and external partnerships will become increasingly important, such as between EMS, Community Relations, Community Safety Services, and with area hospitals (as suggested by stakeholders), not only for the delivery of services but also to improve our prevention and mitigation efforts for high, medical-risk populations.

o Goal: Re-organize EMS Bureau staffing by one EMS Educator without increasing total number of employees by 2011. 25% in 2010 - EMS education has been moved to the training bureau, job duties have been re-assigned which has increased the capacity of the existing educator; will continue to evaluate in 2011 to determine need for additional personnel. 100% in 2011 - EMS education moved back to EMS in 2011 with a total of two educators. Second educator paid for through Centura and existing funds for adjunct instructors. One educator vacancy in 2013 on hold due to funding, but utilizing operations personnel to supplement training.

o Goal: Provide ALS service capabilities in each district by 2012. In 2011 - ALS strategy has been changed and this goal no longer fits response plan. Equipment is provided at each station, but staffing is not defaulted everywhere. ALS staffing is provided in each medic unit with 4 of them being dedicated with 2 paramedics, along with 3 engines or towers having a paramedic.

o Goal: Incorporate a BLS transport model into the EMS deployment strategies by 2012. In 2011 - This goal has been re-examined and is not anticipated to be pursued any further. Call volume and paramedic skill retention do not support the model.

Domestic Preparedness Planning and Response

Mission – Develop, implement, and manage plans that enhance and support the operational and administrative functions of the South Metro Fire Rescue Authority in all four phases of emergency management - mitigation, preparedness, response, and recovery.

Our stakeholders expect SMFRA’s emergency management program to be well-coordinated with other emergency services and governmental agencies, operate in a cooperative manner, and be a leader in emergency preparedness. To meet those expectations, work is currently in progress and will continue through the first two years of this strategic plan to complete the Comprehensive Emergency Management Plan. This “CEMP” provides guidance during the planning, management and coordination of response and recovery activities to large-scale emergencies or disasters. These planning efforts are being conducted on a regional basis to ensure SMFRA’s plans are compatible with local city and county plans. The program has already taken a regional leadership role through the development of a Type IV Incident Management Team which will require continued support. Over the next 5 years, it is also hoped the program will be recognized as an accredited program through the Emergency Management Accreditation Program (EMAP), which has already provided the model for our program and will help to validate its philosophies, structure, and outcomes.

The department of homeland Security’s North Central Region may also be introducing a new staff and on-scene accountability card system that may be incorporated into SMFRA’s existing card systems in the near future and the incident command system in later years. SMFRA’s need, along with the commitment throughout the metro area and available funding mechanisms, will be evaluated before moving forward with this effort.

o Goal: Complete the Emergency Response Plan annexes, the Continuity of Operations Plan, and the Risk Assessment & Mitigation Plan components of the CEMP by 2012. 25% in 2010 - Wildland and MCI Annexes are waiting for final approval by Operations.

o Goal: By 2012, ensure SMFRA is integrated and involved in strategic regional planning groups, committees, and processes (e.g., NCR, USAI, MMRS), focusing on representing SMFRA goals and needs in the regional response plans. 100% in 2010 - Emergency Manager continues to participate in regional groups and is part of the regional exercise committee for the 2011 and 2012 full scale exercises. This is an on- going goal.

o Goal: Develop a comprehensive Emergency Operations Center to meet the emergency management, training, and information technology needs and coordinated with the overall facilities plan by 2013. Fire Operations Center update and move to Mineral is dependent on financial situation and plans for Parkglenn facility. 50% complete in 2012 – Initial discussions completed and will be documented in a plan in 2013 in cooperation with discussions regarding the use of Parkglenn building. 75% complete in 2013 – Parkglenn EOC will not be transferred to Mineral; MetCom facility will be utilized for future EOC needs; plan will be developed in 2014 to define integration with ICS.

o Goal: Pursue accreditation through EMAP by 2013, either as an independent agency or in cooperation with State accreditation. Evaluating feasibility in 2012. This goal has been re-examined and is not anticipated to be pursued any further. This additional accreditation does not offer any benefits beyond the existing accreditation for SMFRA.

Special Operations

SMFRA’s stakeholders expect a quick, professional, and highly-qualified response to all types of emergencies. Aside from fire and EMS response, our Special Operations Bureau oversees our response capabilities to special risks including wildfires, aircraft rescue/firefighting, technical rescue, hazardous materials, and water rescue. Since the risks associated with these special operations are high, but the service demands are often low, it remains a priority to seek partnerships to share the costs of these services throughout the region and explore reimbursement opportunities whenever possible. These skills also demand on-going and specialized training, which is currently a challenge based on the limited space of the Joint Services Facility.

44 o Goal: Implement alternative funding strategies that will result in a self-supported S.W.A.T. medic team by 2012. 25% in 2010 - Progress has been made with Douglas County Sheriff's financial support of program. 100% in 2011 - Douglas County provides specific equipment, range fees, etc. Alternatives have been investigated, but of little benefit, and have essentially reached maximum funding opportunities. Will continue efforts into future.

o Goal: Expand through alternate funding mechanisms, water rescue and recovery capabilities near the Reuter-Hess reservoir by providing light dive rescue equipment, storage, and personnel by 2012. Moved to 2015. The filling of the reservoir and the associated development of recreational uses may be several years away. We will continue to develop response and funding strategies.

o Goal: Reduce wildfire hazards in the wildland-urban interface areas identified in the Community Wildfire Protection Plan by implementing mitigation activities by 2013. 10% in 2010 - Completed education presentation in 9 at-risk communities (21%) and completed CWPP in 5 communities (12%).

VI PHYSICAL RESOURCES

Physical Resources Plan

SMFRA has developed several performance measures to evaluate the service levels provided throughout the fire district. Over the first years of this strategic planning process, staff will be working to develop a systematic approach to determining the need for additional fire stations or resources in a particular area. Criteria may include call volume, risks, response time performance, land availability, future growth predictions, funding opportunities, and potential for alternative service approaches. While additional fire stations may be limited during the 5-year plan, depending on the financial outlook, opportunities to secure land in strategic areas will be pursued.

o Goal: Finalize criteria for adding, removing, or relocating fire stations and apparatus by 2014. 5% in 2011 - A committee was formed by operations in 2011 to examine operational staffing and deployment. This includes the development of criteria for when to change staffing, units, and station location based upon accreditation performance indicators as well as best practices in other agencies. A survey of medium and large accredited agencies (10 or more stations) was done in 2011 and the results are being analyzed at the beginning of 2012. A secondary, shorter survey is being developed for distribution to medium and large non-accredited agencies in the first quarter. It is anticipated that by mid 2012, a final report will be completed and shared for further analysis on station distribution and unit location. This effort has been addressed on an individual basis, such as with 32, 37 and 38. Formalizing the criteria to be accomplished with the next SOC and accreditation cycle.

Fixed Facilities

Mission: The Facilities Bureau will provide the employees of South Metro Fire Rescue Authority with safe and comfortable facilities in which to efficiently and effectively perform their duties.

SMFRA’s facilities form the foundation for all services provided by the Authority. A functional, efficient, and effective workspace is important to ensure that each member has the ability to perform to the highest level possible. Over the next 5 years, the focus will be on our existing facilities to identify necessary remodeling projects (kitchen, bedroom, bathroom), maintain facilities to comply with building and fire codes, incorporate new technologies that improve health and safety, and incorporate energy-saving and “green” initiatives. Since several facility replacement and refurbishment projects are delayed until funding recovers, additional strain will be put on SMFRA’s infrastructure and potentially result in higher costs in the future.

o Goal: Evaluate contracted expenses for repairs and maintenance of facilities for possible cost savings by performing these services in-house with additional staffing by 2013. 50% in 2010 - Some changes have been implemented. Facilities staff needs to evaluate these changes and identify additional cost savings measures. Still 50% in 2011 - Collecting data through Maintenance Connection for future. 75% complete in 2013 – Seasonal worker program to be implemented in 2014, which is anticipated to eliminate contracted expenses and improve overall maintenance staff productivity. Will continue to track impact and evaluate effectiveness.

o Goal: Remodel Station 35 by 2015.

Apparatus and Vehicles

SMFRA emergency response apparatus are evaluated based on detailed diagnostics to determine the condition of the apparatus and a rotational cycle to move the apparatus from a daily response mode to reserve status to liquidation. The planned apparatus replacements during this planning cycle has already been significantly modified and the economic downturn may continue to necessitate the revision of this plan. The result will be an aging fleet, requiring additional maintenance, and keeping apparatus on front-line status for longer periods of time, and potentially higher costs and more vehicles to be replaced at the same time once funds become available. Authority has begun replacement of some apparatus and vehicles in 2013 and 2014. See schedule of vehicle replacements in the Capital Projects section on page 71.

Apparatus Maintenance

Mission: To serve as an integral part of a team that saves lives and protects property by providing best in class services in the most timely, economical, and friendly way possible as to be an asset to the Authority and our community.

The Fleet Services Bureau is currently challenged to perform repairs and preventive maintenance on all SMFRA vehicles in a timely manner, as well as a limited number of external customers. Future capabilities will be further challenged based on the expected fleet growth rate of all customers, the available storage and repair space at the Joint Services Facility, and the additional fleet testing and maintenance requirements of national standards (NFPA 1911). Previous external customers are also expressing interest in being served, as well as new customers. This strategic planning period will be used to explore ways to improve service and recover costs, such as increasing mobile repair capabilities to reduce out-of-service time of apparatus.

48 o Goal: Conduct a detailed analysis of fleet service operations and develop a plan to implement changes to improve service and cost effectiveness by 2012. 50% in 2010 - In 2010, completed detailed comparison report between SMFRA & WMFPD; continue evaluation in 2011. 80% in 2011 - A revised parts department service delivery model will be started in 2nd quarter, 2012.

o Goal: Establish a quartermaster program to issue, repair, and improve accountability of small tools, hose and nozzles by 2012. 100% in 2010 - Re-organized ops equipment program where individual coordinators now have responsibility over specific equipment. Filled Quartermaster position in 2012.

Safety Equipment

o Goal: Replace all SCBA cylinders to meet current NFPA standards by 2013. In 2011 Assistance to Firefighters Grant application has been submitted to supplement the cost of this goal (~$513,000). Anticipated to be completed in 2013. SCBA purchase was made in 2013. Completed in 2013.

o Goal: Institute a wildland PPE replacement program in order to comply with NFPA standards by 2014.

VII. HUMAN RESOURCES

The Human Resources Bureau will play a critical role in assisting the organization through the merging of policies, philosophies, and culture in the coming years. Supporting the development of competent, educated, and well-trained employees to provide high-quality services to the community and succession planning for the organization will also be a priority, with a focus on performance appraisal systems and training/education programs. While a significant amount of hiring is not expected, maintaining a focus on a high-quality, diverse workforce will also be a focus. HR will also help the organization to find the optimal workforce through the development of staffing plans to identify hiring thresholds, cross-staffing needs, and critical position.

49 Human Resources Administration

o Goal: By 2013, evaluate the human resource information system needs to improve reporting capabilities. 50% in 2010 - HR has identified the deficiencies in the current HRIS system. The next step would be to evaluate other HRIS alternatives if the budget allowed, however this is a fairly expensive and time extensive undertaking. Still 50% in 2011 - Waiting for next release of FireManager to assess updated capabilities. Additional FireManager training in 2012 to complete needs assessment. 75% in 2012, 2013 – HR participated in an all-day Fire Manager training to ensure the staff fully understood Fire Manager capabilities. HR tested the new High Plains (Fire Manager) following the release in January 2013 and identified several issues. IT and HR will be conducting a Gap Analysis in order to assess whether Fire Manager still meets our needs.

Recruitment, Selection, Retention, and Promotion

o Goal: By 2012, complete the implementation of the 2010/2011 reduction in force initiatives to bring the organization to optimal staffing levels and prepare for the economic downturn. 90% in 2010 - Completed except for final severance payments during 2011.

o Goal: By 2011, all employees will be utilizing the new performance appraisal system. 50% in 2010 - In 2010, all supervisor & employee training completed for journaling; will complete appraisal training in early 2011, with all employees having an evaluation by the end of 2011. 100% in 2011 – Completed.

Occupational Health and Safety and Risk Management

A main focus of SMFRA’s risk management program during this strategic planning period is to establish better control over the organization’s on-the-job injury rate and time to recovery. Over the past three years, worker’s compensation claims have been high and have resulted in an “experience modifier” of .94, which has since grown to .96. This rating is close to average but is still indicative of

50 high injury rates and results in high insurance premiums. A more proactive approach will be taken to analyze our risks and implement programs to prevent workplace injuries and reduce recovery times when injuries occur. Efforts to reduce the modifier will not show their full impact until 2014, since the rating is determined from a previous three-year period.

o Goal: By 2012, implement improved reporting software for reporting accidents, safety hazards, worker’s compensation claims, and after-action reporting. 25% in 2010 - HR is working with work comp carrier to improve work comp claims reporting process. We are evaluating an online claims reporting system. 100% in 2011 – HR worked with work comp carrier to develop a sufficient system.

o Goal: By 2012, develop a reporting system to allow for improved tracking, reporting, and analysis of near misses. Changed to 2013. 75% in 2010 – Near miss form has been developed; waiting for workflow process in SharePoint. No change in 2011, 2012 still waiting for workflow process in SharePoint. 90% in 2013

o Goal: By 2014, decrease the frequency and cost of worker’s compensation claims with a corresponding decrease in experience modifier from the current .96 to .75. 25% in 2010 - HR took over the administration of worker's compensation in July of 2010 and has significantly streamlined the claims reporting process and administrative procedures. As a result of decreased reporting times, better claims management, and mitigating risks, the experience modifier has been reduced yielding a significant cost savings for work comp premiums. 60% in 2011 – The experience modifier has reduced to .83. 75% in 2012, 2013 – The experience modifier has reduced to .80 but due to poor claims history during 2012 the experience modifier will likely increase in 2014 as the mod rate lags behind one year. HR continues to manage work comp claims aggressively in an effort to mitigate work comp cost and maintain or improve our mod rate.

o Goal: Develop methods to control the cost of health care by 2015. 10% in 2011 – Significant cost control measures were successful for 2012 costs. Other options will continue to be researched. 50% in 2012 – In 2013, moving to a partially, self-funded model of health care insurance. In 2014, implemented plan design changes and employee contribution adjustments to limit cost increases.

VIII. TRAINING AND COMPETENCY

Since the SMFRA merger, the Training Bureau has focused on the standardization of policies and procedures and assurance that all personnel are performing critical tasks in a safe and consistent manner. The training focus is now shifting to moving the organization forward, polishing skills, teamwork, and raising the bar to implement best industry practices. Future training will also focus on command-level strategies and communication to improve the outcome of significant emergencies. As stressed by SMFRA’s stakeholders, there will be an increase in interaction with neighboring agencies

51 to improve communication, share critical information, and standardize tactics. Future training efforts will be challenged with the competing space and equipment needs at the Joint Services Facility. Also, as training methods begin to rely more on distance learning technologies in order to reduce out-of- service time and the potential for uncovered areas of the district, the associated technical support from I.T. and media staff will need to be monitored.

Training and Education Program Performance

o Goal: Increase training opportunities with neighboring fire agencies. Provide three mutual aid drills per year with fire districts that we interact with frequently and provide periodic weekend trainings with other Douglas and Arapahoe fire districts. 80% in 2010 - Several events held in 2010 including 3 full training cycles with Cunningham FD. We also held our first volunteer conference. 8 different FDs participated.

Still 5% in 2011 - Will be evaluated with long-range facility plan; has been included in budget forecasts for 2014. 15% complete in 2013 – We will be using modular burn props in 2014 as we begin to evaluate the potential for more flexible props/structures on the drillground in the future. Current burn building continues to meet needs and is meeting inspections criteria as well.

IX. ESSENTIAL RESOURCES

Water Supply

o Goal: Eliminate water supply technician positions and transfer duties to other Life Safety Bureau and MetCom personnel in 2011. 100% in 2010 - Two plan reviewers have taken over liaison duties within the LSB; MetCom tracks GIS data and hydrants out of service.

Communication Systems

The Metropolitan Area Communications Center (MetCom) was designed to become a regional fire/EMS emergency communications center committed to customer service and improved call handling performance. MetCom officially opened in January of 2006, and currently serves as the communications center for SMFRA. MetCom also contracts dispatch services for West Douglas Fire Protection District. It is the desire of MetCom to provide its services to additional fire agencies and is aggressively seeking these opportunities. However, the political environment and financial abilities within neighboring agencies will pose challenges to strategic expansion. Future expansion supports SMFRA’s stakeholder expectation that the organization will continue to find ways to work seamlessly with neighboring agencies, improve service levels, and respond to emergencies in the most timely manner possible. MetCom is currently able to handle up to 25,000 emergency calls per year with the current equipment and staffing. Should growth of MetCom increase the call load beyond that threshold, additional dispatchers and associated equipment, as well as additional specialized staff positions may be required.

Significant work has been completed in 2009/2010 to improve the CAD-to-CAD interface with Littleton in order to decrease total response times within the two jurisdictions. As seen below, significant industry upgrades will result in financial challenges to MetCom. Additionally, there are potential significant costs to SMFRA resulting from a proposal by the Consolidated Communications Network of Colorado to establish a “per radio” charge to support their infrastructure. These threats present an additional impetus for SMFRA and MetCom to actively seek opportunities for dispatch consolidation of services and regional partnerships.

53 An additional communication issue that will need monitoring is the movement toward a regional, digital VHF network. Our participation will be based on funding mechanisms and the evaluation of operational enhancements.

o Goal: Improve critical preplan and hazard information available to emergency response crews during incidents by 2011. Moved to 2013. 50% in 2010 - MetCom is working with the emergency manager to develop target hazard response plans and the additions of hazard information into the MDT data. Additionally, MetCom recently rolled out plume modeling software in the center allowing us to proactively provide citizen notifications and provide additional information to the line as they respond to an incident. On-going efforts to convert old preplan data and update on MDT's. 90% in 2011, 2012 - MCI/wildland preplans are now attached to building/subdivision preplans and available on MDT's. Main gas distribution lines have been added to MDT's. Out of district preplans have been created and available in the field. Investigating tools to view preplans separate from MDT's in 2013. 100% complete in 2013 – Ipads implemented to improved viewing of preplans

o Goal: Evaluate funding for the significant capital purchase of radio consoles by 2011. Moved to 2014. Still 10% in 2011, 2012 - MetCom is working with CCNC and Motorola to seek out funding options for the upcoming radio console upgrades.

o Goal: Pursue opportunities for consolidation of dispatch services throughout the region by 2012. 10% in 2010 - MetCom continues to be active in seeking out opportunities to add additional agencies into its operation or to potentially consolidate fire/EMS communications regionally. 35% in 2012, 2013 - MetCom is now supporting GIS information in Littleton to establish consistent data and improved dispatching capabilities; future expansion of this service is anticipated in 2013. GIS and analysis services are being contracted to SMFRA and West Metro in 2013. Incident Dispatch Teams have been regionalized with Littleton and Douglas County communication centers. Discussions have begun with other agencies for the potential consolidation of CAD.

o Goal: Institute medical priority dispatching by 2013. 10% in 2010 - MetCom has scheduled meetings with Dr. Eby and the EMS Bureau to start discussions pertaining to the modification of response protocols and the implementation of priority dispatch. These planning sessions will be conducted throughout 2011 with a proposed implementation in early 2012. 50% in 2012 - Discussions have been held pertaining to the modification of response protocols and the implementation of priority dispatch and will continue through 2013. 100% completed in 2013 with the implementation of the ARM car program.

54 o Goal: Establish a basic CAD-to-CAD interface with Arapahoe and Douglas County PSAP’s by 2014. 5% in 2010 - MetCom is sitting on an NCR committee exploring the feasibility of developing a common CAD to CAD interface between all PSAPs in the Metro area. Additionally, MetCom was instrumental in the development of Arapahoe County's strategic 9-1-1 plan which has earmarked funds to start the planning process for developing a data sharing model for all PSAPs in Arapahoe County. 50% in 2011 - A Douglas County and Parker/Lone Tree police interface will be completed in 2012. Littleton Fire's interface is completed. 75% in 2012 – Parker/Lone Tree police was completed in 2012; Douglas County SO’s interface will be completed in 2013 once DCSO has completed their CAD upgrade. 75% in 2013 – Douglas County, Arapahoe County and Aurora delayed due to pending CAD consolidation but anticipated by 2015.

o Goal: Replace all radios for 700 MHz re-banding by 2017. This is a potential significant project/cost; timeline may depend on how quickly 700 frequencies are utilized.

Administrative Support Services and Office Systems

Administrative support staff will be focusing on providing well-trained, professional assistance to internal and external customers. This will include expanding internal training opportunities to staff employees on office products and software, and providing cross-training opportunities to expand the depth of knowledge and support continuity of operations. SMFRA also adopted the State of Colorado records retention policy and will need to evaluate and implement the most effective methods to store, track, and purge documents. In support of this effort, the organization would like to move toward paperless solutions for board meetings, mail, etc.

o Goal: Evaluate document management system needs by 2013. 100% in 2010 - Completed. Managers have been trained to access State retention schedule; no additional management software will be investigated.

X. EXTERNAL SYSTEMS RELATIONSHIPS

External Agency Relationships & Agreements

Establishing strong relationships with neighboring fire and police agencies and other emergency service providers is important to our stakeholders and will become increasingly important during times of economic downturn. In general, the financial stability of the organization and improved service to the community are a priority and, therefore, SMFRA will be open to opportunities for regional cooperation, partnerships, and consolidation of services.

o Goal: Establish an automatic aid agreement with the City of Aurora by 2011. 100% in 2010 - Completed. Signed IGA for auto aid to small areas near northeast border close to E-470.

o Goal: Establish an automatic aid agreement with the City of Denver by 2015.

o Goal: Investigate collaborative staffing models with West Metro Fire for the Station 40 response area by 2015. Preliminary analysis has been conducted, including the impact of future Sterling Ranch. Discussions with West Metro to be held starting in 2012, pending their final changes in management. 10% in 2012, 2013 – Preliminary discussions have been held with West Metro management and will continue based on growth timelines.

XI. OTHER STRATEGIC FUNCTIONS

Community Relations

Mission: Community relations will build and maintain positive relationships with the authority’s stakeholders, both internal and external, through open and progressive communication and help other divisions achieve their communication goals.

As a new organization, internal and external communications is a high priority and on-going challenge. To help guide those efforts, the Community Relations Bureau will be formalizing the methods for SMFRA to interact with our communities and to more effectively communicate internally as a large organization. The bureau’s media services will be an integral component of that communication plan, providing continued safety resources to the community and enhancing internal training opportunities that decrease the amount of out-of-district time for apparatus.

o Goal: Support the Training Bureau in providing an annual citizen’s academy to increase knowledge, usable skills, and appreciation of services provided. 100% in 2010 - Citizens Academy: 2010, 2011, 2012, 2013. Will be conducted annually.

o Goal: Enhance video conferencing and technology-based methods to enhance internal communication by 2013. 80% in 2010 - PolyCom system is now reliable and has been used for broadcasting discussions to all stations; need video camera in media studio to broadcast classes. 100% in 2011 - PolyCom system is anticipated to be upgraded in 2012 to further enhance capabilities. A polycom camera is set up in the TV studio for live broadcasting to stations for training or other informational uses. Social media tools such as facebook, YouTube, and vimeo have been set up to enhance internal communication as well as consistent and timely use of the Intranet. The web site will also be re-designed to improve internal/external communication.

56 75% in 2012, 2013 – PolyCom system was upgraded in 2012 to further enhance capabilities. A polycom camera is set up in the TV studio for live broadcasting to stations for training or other informational uses. Social media tools such as facebook, YouTube and vimeo have been set up to enhance internal communications as well as consistent and timely use of the Intranet. The intranet (SharePoint) will be redesigned and enhanced in 2014 to improve internal communication.

o Goal: Based on call volume, demographics, risks, and appropriateness of community relations opportunities, develop a program for each station to contribute to community relations by 2012. Moved to 2014. 20% in 2010 - HOA's have been contacted and created liaison program with station captains; information provided to captains via intranet for discussions and capturing feedback. 25% in 2011, 2012 - Officer interaction with HOA's is continuing and future training needs to be provided to strengthen program. This goal is tied to risk assessments at station level to see if results provide direction on target audiences. 100% complete in 2013

o Goal: Redesign external web site and increase customer visits by 5% by 2013. Completed in 2013 – will monitor customer access.

Information Technology

Mission: The mission of the Technology Bureau is to ensure the District has the computer, software, and communications equipment needed to perform at its optimal level and that District staff is trained and comfortable working with said equipment. The Technology Bureau supports all District Bureaus, Units, and Divisions with individual computer assistance. It is also the responsibility of the Technology Bureau to maintain hardware and connectivity of the Mobile Data Terminals in District apparatus.

During this strategic planning period, the Information Technology Bureau will be focusing on moving the organization to a high-performance, independent, and redundant wireless network system. It is hoped that grant funding in 2010 will help us to enhance our core, wireless network infrastructure in order to achieve this goal and increase bandwidth and system redundancy at each facility. If grant funding is not obtained, we will still need to move forward with creating a redundant system and licensing/improving our primary radio tower sites. Without the boost of grant funding, this project will take at least 5 years. Also, if SMFRA discontinues the use of the Parkglenn headquarters building, a new disaster recovery site will need to be created.

Other routine technology expenses will include the replacement of support hardware, including VMWare servers, Storage Area Networks, and Mobile Data Terminals.

o Goal: Maintain the competency of information technology equipment through a planned replacement policy of support hardware, including VMWare servers, storage area networks, and mobile data terminals (See Capital Program page 73 for the major technology replacement plan).

57 100% in 2010 - No major changes to replacement plan; replacements on-schedule or early so far. 2012 will include a more complete SAN replacement and off-site network redundancy for business continuity.

Upgrading speed of east/west connection anticipated 2nd quarter, 2012. Completed in 2012. o Goal: Relocate disaster recovery site from Parkglenn facility to Station 45. 30% in 2011 - Upgraded Station 45 connection speed; funds approved for 2012 upgrade of SAN. 60% in 2012 – Telephone move pending. SAN configured and replicating; moving the SAN to station 45 pending. 75% complete in 2013 – Final hardware/software relocation and deployment pending.

58 Policies and Procedures

The Authority operates under a policy and procedure manual, which is a dynamic document that is modified as needed. The Authority is also guided by the Strategic Plan which is again a dynamic document that is reviewed as part of the budget process every year and a complete rewrite is done every five years. There is a set of Standard Operating Guidelines (SOG) and Standard of Cover (SOC) which guides the day-to-day operations of the Operations Division. SOGs can be revised as needed. The SOCs are reviewed annually as a part of the process to maintain the Authority’s Accreditation with the Commission on Fire Accreditation International, Inc.

The above Policies, Procedures, and Plans specifically address the following areas:

• Budget, Finance, and Business Operations • Personnel Policy • Emergency Services • Fire Prevention • Purchasing • Maintenance • Community Services • Training • Public Information

Critical Issues

Critical Issues that may affect the organization are either opportunities or challenges. Among those issues identified were:

• Changing demographics of the community we serve. • The changes in real estate values are a major concern for future revenues, although this seems to be mitigating somewhat. • Federal, State, and Local mandates/legislation. • Succession planning as our workforce ages. • Concerns with the aging workforce.

Please see the discussion of the threats to property tax revenues and the possible solutions in the budget letter.

The changing demographics cause mostly changes in the fire medical call types and the ability to pay for those services that are billable i.e. Ambulance Transports. The Medicare and Medicaid non allowed charges continue to increase. The software which is used to track call load in various areas of the Authority is also used to project locations and timing of station construction. If the growth does not occur, stations and staffing will not be required. There was an increase in real estate values in 2012 and 2013 that resulted in a 4.17% increase in assessed values for the 2014 budget year. Every two years in Colorado, a full reassessment of properties is undertaken by the County Assessors. The values for the 2014 revenues will be the property values between July 1, 2010 and June 30, 2012.

59 Succession planning is being actively studied and evaluated. Succession planning is being addressed by providing programs for development of employees at all levels to prepare for the next higher position and an aggressive tuition reimbursement program is also provided.

Workers compensation and long term disability continues to rise due to our aging workforce. The Authority is looking at ways to mitigate this increase.

Budget, Finance, and Business Operations

The Authority follows policies and procedures regarding budget, financial, and business operations in managing and controlling those areas. The principles, concepts, and practices will serve as guidelines to the Authority and provide a basis for ensuring its financial stability. The policies correlate with the policy and procedure manual and the strategic plan. The Authority prides itself on being a fire service leader by striving to attain the highest quality fire and rescue services in a very cost effective manner.

Operating Budget Policies

South Metro Fire Rescue Authority is committed to providing high quality services to the community at an acceptable level of taxation. Specific policies that drive the budget preparation are:

The Authority will maintain high service levels in emergency services operations, which include responses to fire and medical emergencies. These services receive the highest priority for funding. The Authority will avoid adopting budgetary procedures that result in balancing current operational costs at the expense of future years’ operations.

The Authority will maintain a budgetary control system to ensure compliance with the adopted budget, especially with regard to State of Colorado Budget Law and will prepare regular reports comparing actual revenues and expenditures to budgeted amounts. To this end, the Board, the Chief, Assistant Chiefs, Bureau/Division managers and the Coordinators of various programs receive monthly “budget-to-actual” financial reports. The Board and the Chief receive reports for all funds and the Assistant Chiefs, managers and coordinators receive reports for their specific area.

The Budget Process

1. The Chief Finance Officer and the accountant prepare an annual budget with input from the various divisions, bureaus, and program coordinators by early September. The budget process is intended to weigh all competing requests for the Authority within the expected fiscal restraints. Budget development uses the strategic plan as a guide to determine program funding. 2. This document is reviewed by executive staff and the resulting document is presented to the Board of Directors by October 15th per Colorado Budget Law. 3. A balanced budget is required by Colorado Budget law. A balanced budget is one where the beginning cash balance plus current revenues is equal to or greater than current expenditures. 4. The entire budget is reviewed with the Board of Directors of all three Boards at a budget workshop usually in conjunction with the October board meeting.

60 5. A public hearing on the budget is held by all three boards at the November meeting as per Colorado Budget Law. 6. The Board of Directors of the two individual districts pass resolutions to set the mill levies for the two districts and resolutions to adopt their budgets and appropriate funds which are transferred to the Authority. This must be done so that the mill levies can be certified to the county commissioners before December 15th as per Colorado Budget Law. 7. The Board of Directors of the Authority then passes resolutions to adopt the budget and appropriate funds for their budget before December 31st for the following budget year. 8. The budget documents are sent to the Colorado Division of Local Government by January 31st of the budget year. This document must include a budget message and three years of revenue and expenditure information: one year of actual data, one year of estimated, and the budget for the budget year as per Colorado Budget law. 9. The budget is prepared by fund and the Districts and Authority are accountable by Fund per Colorado Budget law. Any changes to the budget that will produce spending above the budgeted amount by fund must be made by passing a resolution and holding a public hearing. Changes within each division or line items can be made at management’s discretion. 10. The budget is prepared on the modified accrual basis of accounting. Revenues are recognized when they become measurable and available. Expenditures are recognized when the liability is incurred. The Authority does not use encumbrances. 11. In conjunction with the budget preparation, the 5-year financial plan is updated with the proposed budgeted numbers and reviewed with the Board of Directors. This provides the opportunity to evaluate future revenue or expense problem areas for early intervention in order to maintain financial stability. Any increase in operating expenses as a result of capital purchases in the 5-year plan is included in the appropriate fund expenditures.

Budget Amendments

Expenditures may be moved among line items or divisions within a fund. However, any increase in expenditures in a fund above the budgeted amount or transfers between funds must go through the resolution and appropriation process.

Necessary changes are determined and a public hearing is held. The Board approves a separate resolution and appropriations if current year budget changes are necessary. This can happen at any time during the year but is usually done in conjunction with the annual budget process.

Basis of Budgeting and Accounting

The Governmental fund types are budgeted and accounted for on the modified accrual basis of accounting whereby revenues are recorded in the accounting period in which they become measurable and available and expenditures are recorded at the time liabilities are incurred, except interest expense on lease agreements which is recorded on the accrual basis. All the funds that are budgeted for are also included in the audited financial statements.

61

The enterprise fund is budgeted on the accrual basis of accounting. The pension trust fund is budgeted on the accrual basis of accounting, whereby revenue is recognized when earned, and expenses are recognized when incurred.

The basis of accounting described above is in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles.

The Budget Document as an Operational Guide

The budget document, as previously noted, was developed to serve as the financial plan required to carry out the goals and objectives for the ensuing fiscal year. It is intended to provide financial guidelines for programs and functions within the Authority. Separate summary pages are presented for these areas and each summary page includes data for salary and benefits, supplies and expenses, and capital. Funds

62 included in the annual budget document are governmental, enterprise, and fiduciary trust fund types. Included in the former are those funds, which require a tax levy, the Special Revenue Fund for each of the two Districts that make up the Authority and the Cherry Hills Pension Trust Fund that has a mill levy for members who had earned benefits under the Old Cherry Hills Village Fire Protection District Plan before its merger with South Metro Fire Rescue. The General Fund receives the tax receipts from the Special Revenue Funds and provides the services to the citizens of the two Districts. The Capital Projects Fund is a governmental fund type, which does not require a tax levy. Rather, the sources of revenues for this fund are transfers from the General Fund and interest. The Ambulance Transport Fund and the Building Rental Fund are Enterprise Funds.

Capital expenditures within the Capital Projects Fund were proposed while keeping in mind the effect these items would have upon operations and operating expenditures. Items budgeted in the Capital Projects Fund are compared with the long-term capital plan where their replacement and expected lives must be estimated. New equipment or facilities require operating costs to be included in the operating budget and their impacts are included in the five-year financial plan.

The Budget as a Financial Plan

How funds are structured was addressed within the discussion of the budget as an operational plan. The resources of each fund will be discussed subsequently in greater detail by fund.

FINANCIAL POLICIES

1. The records for the Authority are kept using Generally Accepted Accounting Principles (GAAP). 2. The Authority will maintain at a minimum 25% of the next year’s budgeted expenditures as a cash reserve in the General Fund. This is to maintain continuity of service. If the cash balance falls below this level, expenditures will be reduced in order to bring the balance back into compliance. 3. The Authority will set fees for services provided by the Life Safety Bureau for plan review and inspection fees for new construction and remodels, Fireworks stands, and displays and temporary structures for inspection for safety issues. The fees are based on a comprehensive study of actual costs associated with the specific work. This study is updated every three years and reviewed annually 4. The Authority charges fees for ambulance transport services. The fees are developed by comparison to other fire districts and departments and the costs of the services provided. Fees are charged for base service, a cost per mile charge, and fees for various services and supplies. These fees are reviewed annually. 5. The mill levy of the individual districts cannot be increased except by a vote of the people. These are per the TABOR amendment to the Colorado Constitution which limits growth in revenues on an annual basis. Both of the districts have received voter approval to be exempt from the growth in revenue limitation. 6. A mill levy may be assessed in the current year for the previous year’s abatements. An abatement mill levy will be assessed at the discretion of the Board to recover that lost revenue.

63 7. The Authority will maintain an Unrestricted Fund Balance that can be used for future revenue shortfalls or necessary capital purchases that cannot be funded from current year revenues. This Unrestricted Fund Balance is reviewed in the preparation of the Five-Year Financial Plan. 8. Capital Purchases are items with a cost of $5,000 or more and a useful life of three (3) or more years. 9. The Capital Improvement Plan is included in the Five-Year Financial Plan under the Capital Projects Fund. Any associated operating costs are added to the General Fund expenditures or the appropriate fund based on placement of the asset. 10. Normal replacement or additions to capital equipment used in the Technology, Operations, EMS, Training, or Special Operations divisions are included in the operating budget. 11. Capital items purchased in the Ambulance Transport Fund are paid for by the cash balances and the revenues of the Ambulance Transport Fund. 2/10th of the Ambulance replacements are paid from the capital projects fund. 12. Normal replacement of additions to the vehicle fleet will be purchased through the Capital Projects Fund and are subject to life-cycle costing to determine the need for replacement. 13. Major remodels or new construction of structures are budgeted in the Capital Projects Fund and are subject to review and analysis by the Facilities Manager, and the need for new fire stations is determined by call load and response times. 14. The Authority does not budget for depreciation or the increase in the liability for compensated absences.

An item that was approved by the Chief at $80,000 with an amount changing to $95,000, would require an additional approval by the Chief, etc.).

Vendor Relations

No favoritism shall be extended to any vendor.

Gifts: With regards to gifts, services, honorariums, stipends, or fees from vendors or sales representatives, employees should reference the Standards of Conduct and Ethics.

Authority staff may, with the approval of the Authority Chief, accept paid trips to view and analyze new products or processes the Authority may require. Such trips shall be for evaluation and testing only.

Employee Financial Interests – When an employee has an employment relationship with a vendor with which the Authority transacts business, the employee must disclose this relationship to the Fire Chief and the Chief Financial Officer. The employee is not to participate in any activity/decisions involving the purchase of goods or services that are provided by the vendor, nor is the employee to discuss any purchasing activities or decisions regarding such products with the employer/vendor. No member of the Authority: Board of Director, Officer, or employee of a business; or any other individual or business by virtue of a personal or corporate relationship with the Authority shall use confidential or insider information concerning the property of the Authority or affairs of the Authority by which that person or corporation entity possesses a confidential relationship, for the purpose of real or potential advancement of private interest.

Capital Program

The Authority’s Capital Policies are stated above under Financial Policies.

We strongly believe in building and funding the primary response system to accomplish our master strategic goal of “Reducing the frequency of and impact to the community from fires, medical emergencies, and natural/man-made disasters”. The response system’s impact is enhanced by a well thought out program supporting infrastructure to our primary and most important resource – our people.

Our people are our most important resource in providing service to both our internal and external customers. We must be sure to equip them with the tools necessary to ensure their safety and success. These tools include:

• Standardized, quality fire apparatus and fire equipment; • A technologically current voice and data communications link to the dispatch provider and other responding agencies; • Strategically placed fire stations which allow us to reach the most citizens within our targeted time frames; and • A well developed and constantly reevaluated planning process that considers our current and projected demographics, technological changes, and industry trends.

Because the equipment and capital infrastructure to support quality service to our citizens is expensive, we must plan for its utilization considering cost of ownership, expected useful life, ease of use and training, and its funding. It is the master strategic goals of “(1)Reduce the frequency of and impact to the community from fires, medical emergencies, and natural/man-made disasters; (2)Ensure cost effective prevention, mitigation, and emergency responses; and (3) Improve employee health, safety, and recovery” which drives the objective of standardizing as much of our firefighting and support equipment as possible. Standardizing fire apparatus, tools, and support equipment reduces training costs, maintenance costs, and can reduce initial purchase costs.

The master strategic goal of “Ensuring cost effective prevention, mitigation, and emergency response services” drives our financial planning policies. We regularly prepare long term financial forecasts which consider funding sources, personnel, and capital infrastructure needs, among other areas. The Authority uses this planning process for apparatus, station construction, and other capital requirements to set aside reserve funds for these ongoing projects. Because of the costs of these items, our capital budget could range from a few hundred thousand a year to several million dollars per year. Accordingly, the Authority must plan for funding to ensure citizen needs are met.

Policy Statement

Effective financial management of available resources requires that budgetary plans for any one fiscal year be consistent with intermediate and long-range plans. Because capital acquisitions and programs generally require a well-developed plan covering a span of several years, a capital program and related budget should be developed. The Authority has in place a multi-year capital replacement plan that forecasts capital needs and related budget requirements for each projected fiscal year. Our primary focus is to maintain the vehicle replacement schedule, identify years in which station construction should occur, as well as perform ongoing equipment maintenance and capital replacement.

Specific budgetary and operating policies are as follows:

Apparatus Policies: 1. Standardize new vehicle purchases to the maximum extent possible. 2. Utilize a rotation system to maximize the useful life of apparatus. 3. Purchase response vehicles designed for a specific and planned use. 4. Consider future service, planning, and demographic trends. 5. Consider “life cycle costing” to determine the most effective length of ownership. 6. Perform ongoing and regular preventative maintenance on apparatus to maximize the effective and useful life.

Debt Policies

The purpose of this policy is to establish the guidelines set for all debt obligations issued by South Metro Fire Rescue Authority. The Authority intends to use pay-as-you-go for financing of major capital projects, however, if necessary, due to cash flow issues in the short-term, debt may be issued. The Authority may only issue G.O. Bonds by a vote of the registered voters in the individual Districts. The Authority may issue Certificates of Participation or capital leases as management determines fiscally responsible and necessary.

Colorado Law requires voter approval for any General Obligation Debt issued. Neither the Authority nor the individual Districts have outstanding G.O. Bonds or any outstanding authorization that has not been issued. The legal debt margin is 50% of the assessed value for the Authority or the individual Districts.

The Authority will confine borrowing to major capital improvements or asset purchases that cannot be funded from capital reserve funds and/or current revenues or the refunding of previously issued debt for savings of at least four percent (4%) of the outstanding debt or for cash flow improvement. The term of the financing will not exceed the useful life of the project or purchase.

In evaluating debt capacity, general-purpose annual debt service payments should generally not exceed 10% of General Fund revenues, and in no case should they exceed 15%.

75 In no event shall the outstanding debt of the Authority exceed one-half of one percent (.005%) of the net assessed market valuation of the taxable property of the two Districts making up the Authority, as established by the County Assessor. The debt shall be structured to have equal annual debt service payments over the life of the debt.

Credit enhancement (letters of credit, bond insurance, etc.) may be used, but only when net debt service on the bonds is reduced by more than the costs of the enhancement.

The Authority will generally conduct financings on a competitive basis. However, negotiated financings may be used due to market volatility or the use of an unusual or complex financing or security structure.

Computation of Legal Debt Margin

2013 Total Assessed Value $4,920,392,972

Debt Limit - 50% of total assessed value (1) $2,460,196,486

Amount of debt applicable to debt limit - 0 -

Less amount available for debt service - 0 -

Net amount of debt applicable to debt limit - 0 -

Legal debt margin $2,460,196,486

The Authority has no G.O. Bonds outstanding but has a total of outstanding Apparatus Lease of $46,093.

Salary Administration The Authority is a non-union organization and all employee wages are developed and reviewed by the Human Resources Bureau, the Salary and Benefits Committee, the Fire Chief, and ultimately approved by the Board of Directors. Administrative Employees: Work a seven-day work period with a 40 hour work week. Specific work schedules may vary by bureau and/or by employee. Overtime is paid at time and one half for all overtime worked by non-exempt employees. Line Employees: The Line Employees are working a 48/96 shift schedule. This means they work 48 hours and are off 96. A 24 day period is used to determine FLSA overtime. FLSA overtime is paid with the payroll at the end of the 24 day pay period. However, all overtime outside of their normal line work schedule is paid at time and one half every two weeks. “Line employees” are defined as members who work a scheduled 48 hour shift, including Battalion Chief down through Firefighter. Pay Schedule Employee wages are paid on a biweekly basis. The Authority has direct deposit for all employees.

76 Compensation Philosophy Market Adjustments For the 2014 budget year the Authority changed its compensation philosophy. The Human Resources bureau conducts an annual market survey to evaluate both line and administrative wages and to determine appropriate market adjustments. The survey data and proposed market adjustments are reviewed by the Salary and Benefits Committee. Market adjustments are effective on January 1st of each year.

The Authority is committed to paying the 85th percentile of the surveyed departments. The survey data used is the proposed wage of the departments the Authority surveys for the budget year.

Not every position receives a raise every year. If the pay for a position is above the 85th percentile for their position no raise will be given.

The departments the Authority currently surveys for market adjustments for line personnel are as follow: ⋅ Aurora Fire Department ⋅ Colorado Springs Fire Department ⋅ ⋅ West Metro Fire ⋅ Poudre Valley Fire Authority When surveying the market for administrative positions, the Authority evaluates public and private sector job matches. The local government data is obtained through the Colorado Municipal League (CML) survey. The governmental and fire agencies that are selected for each position as “adequate matches” are based on population size and the suitability of the actual job match (i.e. level of responsibility, organizational structure, etc.). The comparative private sector data that is used for various positions is an average wage based on private sector companies with direct matches that participate in the Mountain States Employer’s Council (MSEC) Front Range Survey.

Pay Differentials • Educational Differential: The Authority pays an "education differential” from 1.0% of base pay to 4.0% of base pay based on the level of degree attained by the member both on line and in administration.

• Coordinator/Tech Positions: Line employees who take on additional job duties and responsibilities in areas necessary to the operations of the Authority are paid an annual differential of $1,000, which is added to their base pay.

• Paramedic Differential: All employees who are paramedic qualified receive a $3,000 differential for maintaining their paramedic training, except Battalion Chiefs and above who are paid $1,500.

77 Performance Evaluations District employees are evaluated on an annual basis at a minimum. The performance evaluation for line employees is extensive and the rating scales vary based on the duty, skills, behavior, or task that is being evaluated. The performance evaluations for admin employees vary by position.

Salary by position – The following is a list of positions with the base salary.

Base Position Title Salary

GENERAL FUND

General Fund Fund 01

The General Fund is used to account for resources traditionally associated with government which are not required legally or by sound financial management to be accounted for in another fund. At the Authority, the General Fund is used to account for the revenue and expenditures associated with providing fire protection and mitigation services to the public including support services. These services are provided to and for the benefit of the entire community and are primarily funded through the assessment and collection of property taxes by the two existing Districts, which are then transferred to the Authority.

The General fund is presented in total and then followed by the individual divisions/bureaus. Within each division or bureau there are Salaries & Benefits, Supplies & Expense, Capital, and Lease Payments,

The General Fund personnel strength is budgeted at 336.75 FTEs.

A new compensation philosophy was implemented for the 2014 budget which resulted in a 4.16% increase in total salaries.

The Salary Survey was completed and salaries were adjusted based on the survey results and the Authority’s Compensation Policy. A 20.85% increase in health and dental insurance benefits was budgeted. Worker’s Comp increased by 10.5%.

86 Total receipts for the General Fund for 2014 are projected to be $56.7 million. The major portion is transfers from Parker Fire Protection District and South Metro Fire Rescue. The mill levy amount for Parker Fire Protection District is 12.978 mills on $1,478,030,261 of assessed valuation which will produce $19,181,876 of revenue. The mill levy amount for South Metro Fire Rescue is 9.25 mills on $3,442,362,711 of assessed valuation which will produce $31,841,855 of revenue. The total assessed value for the Authority increased 4.17% from 2013 to 2014, compared to an increase of .2% from 2012 to 2013, a (10.72%) decrease from 2011 to 2012, (0.25%) decrease from 2010 to 2011 and an increase of 8.4% from 2009 to 2010.

The next major revenue source is specific ownership tax on automobiles from the two Districts. The rest of the revenues include interest income, fees for services, and rental of facilities. Plan review fees have been increased from the 2013 budget as the fee schedule is being increased in 2014.

Ending Fund Balance

The Ending Fund Balance is budgeted at $32,934,649. It is the District’s policy to provide funding for the next year’s General Fund expenditures by maintaining a cash balance of not less than 25% of the General Fund Expenditures due to tax receipts being delayed about 3 or 4 months into the budget year. The required balance to maintain our reserves is $14,240,252.

• In 2013, the Facilities Bureau continued building component replacement projects including Station 31 Emergency Generator, Station 33 Roof, three Furnaces and AC Condensers at Station 35, Station 40 Windows, and Station 42 Bay Radiant Heaters. • The Facilities Bureau updated the 2010 Facilities Condition Assessment in 2013. It was determined that, although the stations were three years older, the component replacement program has increased the average station condition score from 5.6 in 2010 to 5.8 in 2013. • Due to the Littleton/Englewood merger study, the design and construction project for replacing Station 32 is currently on hold. • The Facilities Bureau conducted inspections of the Littleton and Englewood fire stations as part of the merger study. The findings were used to score the additional fire stations using the same criteria as was used in the 2010 and 2013 Facilities Condition Assessment of South Metro facilities. • The Facilities Bureau has implemented the Electrical Panel Thermography testing portion of the Predictive Maintenance program. We have achieved success at several fire stations by identifying loose electrical connections and taking corrective action.

115 • So far in 2013, an Opticom has been installed at the intersection of Arapahoe Road and Lima Street. Several Opticom’s identified as not operating properly have been repaired. • In an effort to reduce energy usage, Facilities replaced the metal halide bay lights at Station 45 with T-8 fluorescent lights. The same was done at Station 42 in 2012 with remarkable energy savings achieved. In addition, the T-12 “U” shaped fluorescent lights at Station 35 were replaced with “U” shaped T-8 fluorescent lights.

2014 Goals:

• Continue to build on the success of the Component Replacement Program focusing on window replacement at Station 33 and selected windows at Station 36 and Station 42. In addition, Facilities will also replace the roof at Station 37. • Several Green Initiatives are in the budget for 2014 including replacing the fluorescent and incandescent lights at Mineral with LED lights. Money is budgeted for other Green Measures that are identified throughout the year/ Options include replacing T12 Fluorescent lights with more energy efficient models, replacing lawn sprinkler heads with low water usage models, or reduce the amount of “ghost” energy usage by providing switched multi-plug extension cords to turn off power to devices when not in use. • Install and repair Opticom’s as needed to provide for the safety of the responding firefighters at signaled intersections throughout the district. • The Facilities Bureau will continue their efforts with implementing the Predictive Maintenance program for all South Metro facilities. • The Facilities Bureau will recreate Maintenance Connection to better collect the data required on their yearly Bureau report. • As a cost savings measure and to free up time for the Facilities Maintenance Technician to address the higher priority work orders and programs, the Facilities Bureau is requesting hiring a seasonal Landscape Maintenance person for the summer months of 2014. • To remain on schedule with the Facilities Strategic Plan, the Facilities Bureau intends to connect Station 36 to Castle Pines North water and sanitation and install a concrete driveway and parking lot at Station 40. If not done prior, the Facilities Bureau will work hard to get the design phase for replacing Station 32 moving forward again.

2013 Accomplishments

• The Salary and Benefits committee has put in a lot of time and effort to evaluate alternative compensation philosophies in an effort to provide the Board of Directors with a new comp philosophy for 1/2014 implementation. This project has required a significant amount of time and effort on HR’s part to collect, compile and evaluate the data. Delivering and discussing the data with the Salary and Benefits committee has required a great deal of patience, strategy and diplomacy. • Launched a partially self -funded medical plan to provide the organization an opportunity to reap the benefits of our modest claims history and potentially realize a significant premium cost savings in future years. In addition, moving to a partially self -funded plan will provide the organization with increased flexibility in future years with regards to plan design, premium increases and wellness programs. HR monitors the utilization and financials of the self -funded plan closely with the assistance of our broker, Lockton to assess the “health” of the self-funded plan.

149 • Collaborated with Be Intentional to co-create a “Leadership Academy” to provide admin supervisors with leadership education. This is an ongoing project that has required a fair amount of time and evaluation. The intent is to roll out the academy in late 2013 and to invite other public sector leaders to participate to offset the cost of the program and create a network of support for our admin leaders. • Collaborated with Captain Sarver, Association e-board member, Kinny Tasker and Fitness/Wellness team member, Scott Hegarty to conduct an in-depth evaluation regarding the potential to implement an in-house rehabilitation program. This required travel to Orange County Fire and Phoenix Fire to assess their programs. This served as a great opportunity to build stronger working relationships between HR, the line and the association. The second phase of the project will be to collaborate with Captain Sarver, Chief Lewis and Bob Stratman to evaluate a considerable amount of data and develop a proposal for a comprehensive fitness and wellness program, to include internal rehab with the hope of implementing the program in 2014. • Coordinated and executed a successful Employee Recognition Celebration which required a significant time commitment from HR staff to ensure the appropriate awards were given to the appropriate individuals, selecting a venue and a menu that would be pleasing to all, compiling the program, drafting the scripts for the presentation, invitations and RSVPs and presentation of awards. This year we decided to take a different approach to our employee awards ceremony based on feedback we received from our members. The event was held at the Wildlife Experience in the evening, coupled with heavy appetizers and gambling. The event was a hit and we received a great deal of positive feedback regarding the event. • Executed the RHS conversion from ICMA to ING which required a significant amount of time, data collection, back and forth communications with ICMA, ING and High Plains, drafting employee communications, reviewing detailed contracts. • Developed HR metrics to measure the effectiveness of our HR department, the programs and benefits we provide, the “health” of the organization, etc. Much of this data is fed to SMFRA’s dashboard. • Served as a volunteer for the Local 2164 golf tournament which provided a valuable opportunity to build stronger working relationships between HR and the Association. It was also good PR for HR to be visible at the gala and the golf tournament to demonstrate our interest and support for their efforts. • Managed approximately 45 work comp claims, which entailed active case management, time keeping, FMLA tracking, detailed accurate record keeping, regular and frequent communications with treating providers, work comp carrier, employees, management, disability benefit providers, and coordinating modified duty assignments. • Managed approximately 8 LTD claims, which entailed ensuring applications and supporting documentation were submitted in a timely manner, record keeping, time keeping, FMLA tracking, active claims management, staying on top of the LTD provider to ensure benefits were paid in a timely manner, coordination with Finance to calculate benefits, submitting weekly payroll records to carrier for the duration of the benefit period, coordination of benefits with FPPA and

150 supplemental disability plans along with regular and frequent communication with employees and their significant other to explain benefits and report status of expected monthly payments. LTD is one of the most complicated and time consuming benefits HR administers and as a result requires a significant amount of HR’s time and effort. • The Peer Support Team received a Unit Citation at the annual Employee Awards Banquet for the team’s continued support and work to improve the mental health and wellness of our internal customers in a confidential and trustworthy manner. • Handled a number of disciplines and 3 terminations for both line and staff during the first half of the year which required a significant time commitment to research the issue(s), collect supporting documentation, assist managers in drafting the disciplinary documentation and then deliver the discipline or termination to the employee, which is never easy. • Collaborated with Captain Hendrix and Cigna to take advantage of SMFRA’s wellness dollars to offer SMFRA employees and their families the opportunity to participate in the Bod Pod assessment. Conducting the reimbursement process for Bod Pod participants required a fair amount of time, coordination and employee communication. • Collaborated with Captain Sarver and Captain Adams to develop and present an all day training for the Officer Academy on Performance Management. • Collaborated with Training, Operations Command Staff and CWH to develop a BC promotional assessment process. • Developed a disability benefits package for individuals with at least 10 years of service who separate service as a result of a work related or non-work related disability. • Ongoing efforts to work with Operations Command staff to ensure consistency in discipline. o Collaborated with Chief Baker to create a Performance Evaluation Matrix to utilize when evaluating appropriate levels of discipline. Matrix is being tested by a few individuals prior to rolling out to all supervisors. o Review case studies of disciplinary issues with Operations Command Staff on a monthly basis. Round robin discussions to evaluate appropriate levels of discipline along with organizational and cultural issues that may affect the situation. • Collaborated with Operations Executive Officer to implement a pilot program to provide mentally and physically handicapped individuals an opportunity to volunteer for SMFRA. There are a lot of legal and personnel issues to consider when implementing a program like this in order to ensure SMFRA is compliant with employment laws at the State and Federal level. • Assisted CSS with a significant reorganization when they transitioned to a one DFM model and created the 3 new Section Supervisor positions. • Assisted the Spencer J Carson Foundation in creating a suicide awareness video for employers that details self-care steps, peer support measures, suicide warning signs, and available resources to assist firefighters nationwide in coping with suicide. • Hosted and participated in Trauma Resolution training that was provided for the Peer Support Team and a few other key members of the organization. It was an intense one day training that

151 provided the participants with excellent skills to deal with critical incident debriefing and defusing in the field. • Participated in the training and became certified as a Working Minds Suicide Prevention Trainer. • Collaborated with Colleen Potton, Einar Jenson, Dan Mullin and Dan Mulroney to provide Suicide Prevention Training for the Officers Academy. • Ongoing evaluation of Littleton/Englewood consolidation feasibility from an HR perspective. Collecting and analyzing employee census data to provide the Executive Team with valuable information to assess the feasibility of a merger such as pension issues, educational and certification requirements, staffing levels, etc. • Peer Support Team collaborated with Chief Brown, Wildman and Macklin to roll out Financial Peace University to our members a valuable resource to assist them with their financial challenges as this was an area we identified as a concern through EAP and Peer Support utilization reports. • Collaborated with Lockton to provide Salary and Benefits Committee with ongoing education regarding High Deductible Health Plans and Health Savings Accounts in an effort to ensure the committee members are comfortable with the concept and well educated regarding the plan so that they can serve as a valuable resource to our employee population when the Authority rolled out a HDHP/HAS as a third tier to our current health insurance plan later this year. • Ongoing efforts to work with Broker and CTSI to evaluate work comp data in an effort to identify trends, areas of concerns and ways to reduce SMFRA’s work comp claims. • Evaluated the feasibility and potential benefits of a self- funded work comp program (unfortunately it was not found to be beneficial for SMFRA based on our claims history).

2014 Goals

• Implement an Internal Rehabilitation program • Implement a High Deductible Health Plan and Health Savings Account • Monitor and evaluate effectiveness of partially self-insured medical plan • Implement an Administrative Leadership Development Program • Conduct a lateral Paramedic hiring process • Implement a new Compensation Philosophy for Line and Staff • Evaluate the human resource information system • Conduct a thorough benefits evaluation • Evaluate implementing a 360 degree evaluation tool

164 Community Safety Services Life Safety Bureaus Fund 01 Bureau/Divisions 40, 42, 43, 45, 47, 48, 49 Program Description

Community Safety Services is led by an assistant chief and includes 23 staff assigned to the following major areas; Life Safety Bureau, Community Preparedness Bureau and Planning and Analysis.

The Life Safety Bureau (LSB) is primarily responsible for the enforcement of the adopted fire codes and standards throughout the Authority. The LSB, led by the Fire Marshal, is divided into three main functional areas: Development and Construction, Code Compliance and Investigations. Development and Construction is responsible for ensuring that all new construction and alterations to existing buildings comply with the adopted fire codes and standards. Code Compliance is generally responsible for ensuring that buildings and facilities are maintained properly after they are constructed and occupied. Investigations is responsible for the examination of the origin and cause of fires, explosions and hazardous materials emergencies within the Authority. Typically, investigations are performed by LSB personnel assigned to Development and Construction, and Code Compliance.

The Community Preparedness Bureau was created in 2010 as a consolidation of our various emergency management and education programs that will better allow us to transition our emergency management efforts from the operational planning phase to community-oriented emergency preparedness. The bureau, led by our Emergency Manager, consists of our life safety education, safety foundation, grant management, incident management team (Type IV IMT), terrorism liaison officer, and emergency planning programs.

Emergency Management is responsible for ensuring the plans and programs are put in place to help SMFRA and the community prepare for natural and man-made disasters. The Emergency Manager works with all entities in SMFRA to develop the Comprehensive Emergency Management Plan, including continuity of operations, emergency operations, prevention, mitigation and recovery.

Life Safety Education is primarily responsible for providing fire and injury prevention programs for children, adults, seniors, homeowners, and business owners. Programs include car seat safety checks, wildfire mitigation, juvenile firesetter intervention, and several age and risk specific programs.

The Safety Foundation is a non-profit organization that works in conjunction with Life Safety Education to offer additional, specialized adult and teen safety programs.

Grant Management is primarily responsible for working with SMFRA staff to identify methods to obtain funding for special projects, programs and equipment needs. The Program Administrator fills the role of Grant Specialist and writes the majority of grant applications and assists with the management of the grant once funds are awarded.

The Planning and Analysis Bureau performs data analysis used in planning location of fire stations as well as preparing dashboards for management analysis. This bureau prepares the accreditation document and prepares data for recommendations on the Standard of Cover.

Completed purchase of new equipment needed. • Continued expedient replacement of broken/missing equipment on all front line and reserve apparatus which has been kept to a minimum replacement/repair time frame of 1-2 weeks depending on urgency requested. • Continued supervision of the reserve apparatus “changeover” procedures were questioned in its time saving value. Two units were stripped of their reserve equip. in an effort to decipher whether or not the transfer program was working effectively. This program is still in transition. No decisions have been made for the other three reserve units at this time. • The inventories are forever in transition with new equip. being discovered and purchased by different operations groups. The inventories are updated immediately once there has been approval from the station Captain. • We are well within our budget for 2013 and on track for the end of the year.

2014 Goals

• Put into service another Pierce Engine at station 33 using the new Sharepoint Engine Build Site. This site has been developed by our Fleet Services Dept. to incorporate input from multiple line members and crews working with the particular unit going into service. This site should facilitate a smoother, more efficient process for which to get a new unit in service. • Standardize all Tender unit inventories. This will take the purchase of some items to make units similar. • Purchase equipment for new Aerial unit. • Work with Fleet to transition equipment purchase for new units. Purchase will happen with unit through Fleet in a Capital fund rather than an ops equipment budget expense line item. • Work with Fleet to begin a purchase rotation for extrication equipment and replacement.

196 Personal Protection Equipment (PPE)

2013 Accomplishments:

• Transitioned to a new coordinator.

2014 Goals:

• BUNKER GEAR PURCHASING: To work towards catching up on bunker gear purchases. This will be a budget increase. We have not purchased enough bunker gear over the past five years to provide our members with two sets of NFPA compliant gear. There is a need for a larger than normal order of gear in 2014 and 2015 of approximately 94 sets. Approximately 60 sets of Bunker Gear will be replaced annually beginning in 2016, which will be an approximate cost reduction of $78,000. • EXTRACTOR PURCHASES: Our culture has changed to washing dirty gear more often with recent Cancer studies. To help support that culture we want to purchase 3-4 new extractors for our large fire district. The firehouses that would receive an extractor would be 35, 38, and 45. Currently, we have extractors at 34, 39, and the JSF. The additional extractors would put two extractors in each Battalion. The additional extractors would also help support our new in house Cleaning and Inspection Program that will start in 2014. • HYDROSTATIC PRESSURE TEST PURCHASES: Purchase three Hydrostatic Pressure Test Machines from Honeywell. These machines will enable us to do our own annual Advance Inspection on the moisture barrier of our bunker gear. This will reduce our cleaning and repair costs approximately $80,000 from 2013. Honeywell will certify us to use these machines for FREE. Any obvious repairs needed (rips/tears) will be sent in for repairs. Any bunker gear that fails the annual Advanced Inspection will be sent in to be repaired. • BUNKER GEAR CARE AND MAINTENANCE PROGRAM: Per NFPA 1851, we need to clean all gear twice a year. This needs to be documented. We also need to do two inspections per year. One is a basic physical inspection that identifies normal wear and tear of the gear. The other inspection is the Advanced Inspection. The Advanced Inspections will be performed by qualified SMFRA PPE Group members. Basic Inspections and Cleanings will also be performed by qualified SMFRA. PPE Group members. This does create a budget increase in the OT line item category, but it still creates an overall $60,000 budget decrease for cleanings and repairs from 2013. These will all be appropriately documented per NFPA 1851. Any repairs that need to be performed will be done by a certified ISP (Independent Service Provider) per NFPA 1851. • FORMING A SMFRA PPE GROUP: Recruiting at least three firefighters from each shift to be trained and certified to perform Basic and Advance Inspections. These individuals will also be trained in proper documentation per NFPA 1851.

197 Saws

2013 Accomplishments:

• No frontline unit has been without a saw for any period of time due to maintenance or repair. • No frontline unit has been without a saw blade or chain for any period of time. • A sufficient number of training saws have been maintained to meet all of the department training needs as well as the upcoming recruit academy.

2014 Goals:

Wildland Operations and Callouts

2013 Accomplishments:

• Wildland fires in the fire authority were successfully held to the initial attack phase, with no significant property loss. • Operations/deployments were conducted safely resulting in no injuries and only minor damage to apparatus and equipment. • Multiple members of the team are active participants on numerous interagency incident management teams including Arapahoe County IMT, Douglas County IMT, and Jefferson County IMT. • Through a cooperative use agreement with Douglas County, SMFRA has successfully utilized/incorporated fire aviation resources (Type 2 Helicopter from Rampart Helicopters) into our initial attack fire suppression response. • The wildland program continues to support our interagency partners at the county, state, and federal level by maintaining agreements that allow for personnel and resource mobilization in the event of large scale emergencies. • 22 SMFRA Wildland Team members responded to 11 interagency wildland fire incidents in Colorado and California. These deployments allow team members to gain valuable experience on actual large scale emergency incidents. It should also be noted that these responses are cost neutral for the authority (personnel expense reimbursed), and in most cases the authority nets a positive balance for apparatus use. • The Fire Duty Officer (FDO) Program continues to be refined and has become a model for other metro area agencies to replicate. The program strives to have a wildland “supervisor” on call daily to assist crews on wildland incidents by providing a qualified member to help manage firing operations, saw operations, air operations, as well as providing the ability to fill “middle management” positions on wildland incidents (Division Supervisor, Strike Team/Task Force leader, Air Operations Branch Director), as well as being able to assist or fill upper management positions on large scale incidents as requested. The FDO is also responsible for managing interagency requests for personnel and resources on out of authority deployments. • SMFRA Wildland Team members have had the opportunity to attend numerous National Wildfire Coordinating Group (NWCG) classes to further advance training in operating chainsaws on wildland incidents, engine and squad supervision, interagency business management, strike team/task force leader supervision, firing operations, division/group supervision, incident leadership, and aviation management. • 7 members of the SMFRA wildland team participated in a training exchange program with The Nature Conservancy (TNC) in Texas which provided further interagency experience while providing an additional 260 hours of live fire training while mitigating 4,000 acres of land. Funding was provided by TNC to make this project cost neutral to the authority. • SMFRA personnel had the opportunity to attend a large scale wildland incident management training hosted by Douglas County OEM (assisted by SMFRA Wildland Team Supervisors). Participants had the opportunity to train in a variety of command positions including incident

202 commander, division/group supervisor, and strike team/task force leader. Additionally, members of the Arapahoe and Douglas County Incident Management Teams (Type 4) had the opportunity to integrate into this large scale exercise being mentored by members of the Jefferson County and Boulder County Incident Management Teams (Type 3). Members of both Metcom and Douglas County dispatch personnel were also provided an opportunity to exercise and train on the incident dispatch team (IDT) concept, and how it can be utilized to support large scale incidents. • The wildland program continues to participate with our interagency partners in the development of more comprehensive resource mobilization plans and communication plans to make initial attack interagency wildland fire responses more effective. • Required annual wildland/interface fire safety refresher training was provided to all wildland team members, and additional required refresher training was provided to all SMFRA operational personnel, in accordance to NWCG guidelines. • The wildland program continues to refine the emergency plan relating to wildland fire response, as well as the continued development of pre-fire emergency plans for target hazard subdivisions. • The wildland program continues to support and maintain the authority’s wildland apparatus, equipment, and personal protective equipment, while ensuring that the authority is meeting established state and federal guidelines in these areas.

2014 Goals:

• Continue to provide team members and other operational personnel with state of the art equipment and apparatus to conduct wildfire operations safely and effectively. • Continue to support our interagency partners at the county, state, and federal level. • Continue to develop the wildfire program and team. • Continue to develop wildfire team members towards advanced NWCG qualifications, as well as various IMT support positions. • Continue to provide training to team members and other line operational staff to maintain current skills, as well as for development and safety purposes. This will include annual safety refresher training; saw refresher training, firing operations refresher training, and air operations training. • Continue to conduct, as well as participate in practical drills/tabletops to ensure readiness. • Continue to work with Pueblo Interagency Dispatch, CSFS, Douglas County OEM, and the newly formed Colorado State Office of Fire Prevention and Control, on the “pre-designated” strike team/task force concept for the dispatch zone. • Continue to develop interagency communication plans. • Continue to support the prescribed fire management/training program and expand it to Arapahoe County. • Continue to develop comprehensive emergency plans for target hazard subdivisions, in conjunction with the continued implementation of the authority’s CWPP. • Continue to support staffing goals at designated wildland team stations, and maintain adequate specialty equipment at these stations for deployment during large scale wildland fire incidents.

248 Fleet Services Fund 01 Division 70 Program Description

Fleet Services provides a comprehensive fleet maintenance program designed specifically for emergency vehicles. In addition to South Metro Fire Rescue Authority, Fleet Services extends its services to two different fire departments located primarily along the front-range. Exclusive services are provided to Cunningham Fire District and Jackson 105 Fire District. The Fleet Services Bureau is an approved service and authorized warranty service center for seven major apparatus and ambulance manufacturers as well as several individual component manufacturers. A comprehensive data base and filing system stores all the life-cycle activity for each vehicle and piece of equipment including acquisition costs, maintenance dollars, repairs, annual pump testing, aerial ladder inspections, and liquidations. Fleet Services, also, provides warehouse receiving and delivery for uniforms, some office supplies and operating supplies for the stations.

2013 Accomplishments:

• Constantly reviewed the vehicle maintenance activity and replacement schedules dedicated to facilitate improvements in the Authority’s operations for all areas, with decreasing annual apparatus operational costs while improving in service availability. • Used GOV DEALS.COM to liquidate Authority vehicles for the first time. It worked smoothly, the collection was better than expected and I received a better response from bidders. I will continue to use them in the future. • The new tender for station 39 was put in service in July.

249 • Received a new Hazmat MMRS truck via Homeland Security Grant and was put into service at Station 38. • Prepared 3 new Castle Rock KME Fire trucks for service. • Received and outfitted a new EMS Arm Car in service at headquarters. • Worked with Wright Express to open a corporate fuel account, replacing multiple retail fuel cards with one universal retail card for use in all units, and to streamline fuel billing by having most fuel purchases centralized through a single vendor; Wright Express. Fuel billing and transactions are now available to download directly from vendor. • Worked with FASTER to create fuel interface to import fuel transactions from vendor (Wright Express) directly into FASTER system. • Received, performed in service training and put into service a new Pierce engine for station 41. • Updated vehicle insurance data to correct vehicles, delete vehicles no longer owned by the Authority and added new vehicle purchases. Updated replacement costs as needed. • Upgraded to a newer version of FASTER that has a “DASHBOARD” that will be viewable as a web page in sharepoint. • Assisted Castle Rock Fire with resolving front suspension and steering problems with their new KME apparatus • Worked with GRAINGER and looked at their KEEP STOCK program that will include a vending machine for miscellaneous station, apparatus cleaning and uniform supplies. The machine went live at the JSF in early September. • Implemented solar charger installations on all Training vehicles. • Took over all MDT hardware field repair’s from Metcom.

2014 Goals:

• Revise FASTER SERVICE CENTER Fleet software to allow all Authority users to input fleet service requests as well as look at vehicles/apparatus at fleet in repair process. • Fleet will be writing specifications, performing inspections during construction and putting into service eight apparatus and vehicles in 2014. • Fleet will manage all of the E-470 toll billing and allocation of costs to the various divisions. • Make use of a business consultant to review the work flow in fleet that will assist moving towards a more efficient business model. • Implement IPads for beginning stages of transitioning to electronic filing and annual reporting for all vehicle reports, annual testing/inspections and work order supporting documentation. • Implement online access to vehicle maintenance in progress for access by internal customers. • Put into operation the Battalion a week mechanical checks and repairs at each station. This also provides the opportunity for the line personnel and fleet mechanics to interact as well as support each other’s mission. • Complete all fleet evaluations. • 2014 Fleet Replacement Schedule includes four new support vehicles, one new pumper, one new Type III wildland truck, two new medics and one new tower aerial device. • Share parts room remodel with Douglas County Schools. • Work with Chief Turner to evaluate the validity of resuming the fleet enterprise fund.

250 • Research the opportunity of an apparatus buy-back program with an outside broker. Currently, information provides for engine and aerial apparatus to be replaced every five years and allow the Authority to recover 60-65 percent of the original purchase price. • Evaluate and employ consolidation data for Chief Turner and the executive team.

Warehouse

2013 Accomplishments:

• Worked with Ops Executive Officer and implemented a community outreach program with Marty to assist at fleet and the warehouse. The quartermaster did an outstanding job working with and mentoring Marty through the process of station orders and deliveries, painting bollards around the JSF, cleaning and organizing the warehouse and more. • 90 % of the fleet mechanics were wildland red card certified to allow them access to vehicles during wildland firefighting operations. • Included refurbishing two medic units in the future replacement schedule rather than replacing them. Due to the durability of the medic bodies it proves to be much more cost efficient, reduces delivery time and improves patient care.

2014 Goals:

• Warehouse reorganization improved the order fulfilling process that now streamlines the entire procedure. • Evaluate stock levels and procurement practices to improve time management. • Decrease damaged product loss by implementing better handling and storage practices. • Design and implement an Access or SQL database to include a separate CSS Emergency Management/Public Education store. • Improve the pulling of orders and order delivery accuracy by double checking orders by better organizing and labeling to the individual inventory location. This now involves using Marty to better understand permanent locations. • Install cameras in the warehouse for after-hours monitoring. • Work with Grainger to include other warehouse areas in the KEEP STOCK program which includes a dispensing machine at the JSF.

PARKER FIRE PROTECTION DISTRIC (PFPD)

SPECIAL REVENUE FUND - PARKER FIRE PROTECTION DISTRICT FUND 40

This Special Revenue Fund is used to collect and record the receipt of the property taxes, specific ownership tax, the treasurer’s fees and the operating expenses of the Parker Fire Protection District Board of Directors. The transfer of funds to the Authority General Fund is also recorded in this fund.

Parker Fire Protection District is one of the two Districts that have joined forces to form the Authority. The intent is to fully merge the two Districts on January 1, 2016.

This Special Revenue Fund is used to collect and record the receipt of the property taxes, specific ownership tax, the treasurer’s fees and the operating expenses of the South Metro Fire Rescue Board of Directors. The transfer of funds to the Authority General Fund is also recorded in this fund.

South Metro Fire Rescue is one of the two Districts that have joined forces to form the Authority. The intent is to fully merge the two Districts on January 1, 2016.
