The development of a long-term, strategic plan has been a goal of the Fire Authority Board, Rural District Board members and City Council members. DESCRIPTION: This presentation will be an overview for City Council members of the 2012 Loveland Fire Rescue Authority Strategic Plan.

However, implementation of the Model 1 Basic Services Plan will have a negative budgetary impact for the city over a period of years between 2014-2020; the targeted time duration of the 2012 Strategic Plan. SUMMARY: The Fire Authority was researched and evaluated for Loveland for nearly three years. The result of the evaluation, and the work of three separate committees, indicated that the Fire Authority was the best model of governance, was a feasible model of governance with certain provisions related to increases in staffing and resources, and was doable within certain parameters. One of those key parameters was the development of a long-term strategic plan to function as a guide and management tool to help direct and keep the Fire Authority on target with specified organizational goals. For over eighteen months various working groups and individuals contributed to the writing and development of the 2012 Strategic Plan. LFRA’s Fire Rescue Advisory Commission (FRAC) took on the role of steering committee and assisted in the evaluation and editing of the drafts of City of Loveland Council Meeting Agenda Page 1 of 2 P . 3 the text.
