<br /> <br /> <br />Executive Summary <br />The executive summary provides an overview of the Eugene Fire & EMS and Springfield <br />Fire and Life Safety. The purpose of this executive summary is to abridge the <br />document’s key points, save the reader time, and serve as an organizer for the reader. <br /> <br />Purpose and Report Conventions <br />The project was initiated on March 17 and 18, 2009. ESCI’s (Emergency Services <br />Consulting International) met with the Eugene/Springfield project managers to develop <br />and approve an action plan for the Cooperative Services – Feasibility Study. <br /> <br />ESCi recognizes that information, by its very nature, is often incomplete as it changes <br />from moment to moment. Efforts were made to compile data that was complete, <br />comprehensive, and accurate. The information gathering process included data <br />collection, interviews, and research. <br /> <br />ESCi would like to thank Fire Chief Randy Groves and Fire Chief Dennis Murphy and <br />their staffs for their able guidance and assistance. <br /> <br />Critical Issues and Challenges <br />ESCI’s observations are compiled into four groupings, vital issues, challenges and <br />concerns, opportunities and current successes, and benefits. Vital issues are those <br />essential to one or both cities; any one which might be a deal breaker of future <br />cooperative efforts. Challenges and concerns would not necessarily thwart efforts, but <br />could present an impediment or roadblock to mutual programming and collaboration. <br />While these groupings harbinger warnings to halt or slow organizational changes, there <br />were as many inputs ascribing potential benefits and successful enterprises already <br />established. <br /> <br />ATTACHMENT 1 <br />Page | 1 <br /> <br />
