3 Message from the Fire Chief JOHN PICARELLO 2011 was the year that we settled into the new fiscal normal of the Fire Department. We have moved past the task of reducing the budget after several years of making painstaking budget cuts. However, we have still managed to provide our residents with the best possible level of service while we focus on customer service and customer satisfaction. In fact in 2011, we averaged over two letters, s, or phone calls per month from residents wishing to express their satisfaction and pass on their positive experiences. That being said, it is obvious that the men and women of our department are doing an incredible job in spite of the fiscal challenges that we have faced. Some of the highlights of 2011 include providing Fire/Rescue Services to the Town of Southwest Ranches, filled 14 new firefighter positions to provide that service, started the City s first Fire Department Explorers Program, completed multi-agency Live Fire Training with the Town of Davie and the City of Miramar, completed an inspection from the Insurance Services Offices; received a $400,000 grant to purchase new cardiac defibrillators/monitors and received another grant for 13 new car seats for our rescue units. We also conducted over 10,000 inspections, reviewed over 1,700 building plans, provided over 18,000 hours of public education and continued to participate in the City s Kids and the Power of Work (KAPOW) program. The five Divisions of the Fire Department along with the Communications Division have compiled more detailed information which makes up the remainder of this report. I hope that you find it informative as to what we have accomplished in the year I encourage you to read through and get familiar with the different aspects of our department. As always, we are here to serve and I welcome your comments, suggestions, and feedback. 3
