<br /> <br /> <br /> <br /> <br /> <br /> Outsourcing Fire and Emergency Medical Services <br /> February 21, 2012 <br /> Page 2 <br /> <br /> <br /> All ten fire stations in the City will remain operational. Any changes in fire suppression and <br /> emergency medical response service station assignments must be agreed upon between the <br /> Authority and the City. <br /> <br /> Additionally, the City will seek a private provider of ambulance services. A Request for Proposals is <br /> being distributed to solicit proposals which will then be approved by the City Council in a separate <br /> action. The implementation of a private ambulance service will coincide with the April 20, 2012 <br /> transfer date of the City's fire service to OCFA. If an interim service is required, a temporary <br /> contractor will be assigned for a maximum of 90 to 120 days. <br /> <br /> <br /> FISCAL IMPACT <br /> <br /> The FY11-12 Budget has sufficient funding to cover the net cost resulting from transitioning Santa <br /> Ana Fire to OCFA. The City will generate estimated annuals savings of $8.7M to $10M commencing <br /> with fiscal year 2012-13. <br /> <br /> <br /> APPROVED AS TO FUNDS AND ACCOUNTS: <br /> <br /> <br /> <br /> <br /> Francisco Gutierrez <br /> Executive Director <br /> Finance & Management Services Agency <br /> <br /> <br /> <br /> <br /> <br /> <br /> <br /> <br /> <br /> <br /> <br /> <br /> <br /> <br /> <br /> <br /> <br /> 60C-2 <br />
