You are the heart of what we do. Poudre Fire Authority is constantly working to improve and be proactive in the ever-evolving fire service. We are a proud community partner in Northern Colorado and beyond.
Collaboration with public and private partners in emergency services such as 911 dispatch centers, education, law enforcement, and healthcare helps us reduce risk, provide services that save lives and potentially increase quality of life.
In 2017, PFA developed a new Strategic Plan through a community-driven process to determine critical issues and service gaps. Goals moving forward include providing innovative core services such as Emergency Medical Services (EMS), structural and wildland firefighting and rescue; proactive communications; and continued financial responsibility. The 2018 budget focuses on funding capital needs (technology, facilities, and equipment) and staffing for EMS, inspections, firefighting, mechanics, and Information Technology. PFA prepaid its Lease/Purchase Agreement for Station 4 (1945 W. Drake Road), saving $450,000 in interest payments.
Looking forward, PFA will be innovative with fire-behavior research, drone technologies in public-safety applications, right-sized response deployment models, community-risk reduction, and educational opportunities. We will continue to be an active and engaged community partner.
