LAHCFD Strategic Plan Update in Progress

LAHCFD August 3, 2020

Background

The Los Altos Hills County Fire District is in the process of developing a successor Strategic Plan to the 2015 – 2020 Strategic Plan. The Strategic Plan (SP) Ad Hoc Subcommittee hosted two community meetings to collect stakeholder and public input on the update process.

The Subcommittee provided direction to staff to develop a scope of work to include a timeline, public Commission meetings, and other elements, with the end result of a viable successor plan. The scope of work also addressed the unique needs and accommodations of conducting this process in a completely online forum, due to social gathering restrictions associated with COVID-19. The scope of work and a draft framework for the Successor Strategic Plan was presented and approved at the LAHCFD Commission Regular Meeting on September 15, 2020.

On October 1, 2020, the District’s Strategic Planning consultant facilitated a Special Meeting of the LAHCFD Commission, stakeholders, and the public to review and discuss a preliminary Successor Strategic Plan. The consultant revised the plan based on the feedback gathered at the October 1st meeting. Drafts of the Successor Plan were presented to the Commission at various meetings over the course of October 2020 through January 2021. Each iteration of the Plan and the discussions surrounding them are detailed below.

The LAHCFD Board of Commissioners will receive the final Successor Strategic Plan 2021 – 2022 at its February 16, 2021 Regular Meeting for final review and adoption, pending approval by a majority of the Commission.
