MISSION

The mission of the Fire Service Review Committee is to analyze and evaluate West Mayfield’s current fire service, and to report its findings of fact and evidence-based recommendations to council.


GOALS

  1. FSRC seeks to fully understand the Borough of West Mayfield’s legislative, financial, and legal duties of oversight, obligation, and responsibility regarding the community’s fire service.
  2. FRSC seeks to fully understand the working status of our current fire service, including 1) the first-response readiness/competency of the West Mayfield Volunteer Fire Department (WMVFD, our designated fire service provider); 2) the condition of borough infrastructure as it relates to firefighting needs (e.g., hydrants, water supply); 3) the level of community-based outreach and education related to fire prevention and safety programming; 4) the level of financial support and sustainability from municipal, fire department, and community sources; and FRSC seek to understand the working relationship between the WMVFD and of our neighboring municipalities/mutual aid partners.
  3. FRSC seeks to understand the current fire service ecosystem (i.e., the working relationships between and among our neighboring municipal fire services).
  4. FRSC seeks to understand the nature of the relationship between citizens and fire prevention and fire protection concerns, local government, and the fire department.
  5. FRSC seeks to use its findings of fact to inform recommendations for improving the future of West Mayfield’s fire service.
