Bothell’s Fire and Emergency Medical Services Department recently received community suggestions, which will help staff create a strategic plan that will be presented to City Council at the beginning of next year.
Fire Chief Bruce Kroon organized an external stakeholder meeting earlier this month that invited Bothell community members and business owners to provide feedback on what the department should improve and focus on during the next several years.
“This project is going to set the groundwork for the internal stakeholders — our firefighters, administrators and battalion chiefs — to give us a road map, a vision of the future for the department,” he said.
