Response Times
In early 2005 the City of Port Orange, with the support of the union, went out into the community and asked the residents of the city to make an investment in the future of the city. Residents were asked to vote yes on a 17 million dollar bond referendum and for just eight cents a day the residents would be given an impressive return on their investment... eight cents a day would build two new fire stations, administrative offices, refurbish existing fire stations, one new police station, create community outreach and partnerships with EVAC and Halifax hospital to provide community health care. We sold the projects with the following promises: 1. Station 75 would improve response times to the west side by 50 %. 2. Station 72 relocation would improve response times by 25 %. 3. New stations would include community rooms, training facilities, rehabilitation and wellness clinics, and neighborhood care clinics. In an effort to sell this referendum the following campaign was used in power point format. Medical experts, OSHA, and NFPA recommend 4 minute response times.
