Please include any findings related to response time, coordination with other ambulance services, location, service area, etc. that is the basis for the Council's recommendation: FINDING #1: Windsor Severance Fire Protection District provides EMS transport service through a contract with UCH. WSFR provides the ambulances, and UCH EMS provides the personnel. The service provided to their citizens has dramatically improved over the past seven years. WSFR strives to assist neighboring agencies whenever requested. FINDING #2: The EMTS Council is not aware of any concerns relating to the level of service or response time to the citizens and guests of their response area. FINDING #3: The EMTS Council believes that the service provided by WSFR contributes to the effectiveness, efficiency, and coordination of service delivery to the citizens and guests of its response area and other areas within Weld County. FINDING #4: 2020 has brought significant challenges to the EMTS Council. WSFRis an active participant in the EMTS Council and attends meetings as well as participates in the R&I discussions. Recommended Level of Service: Tier 2 Tier 3 Recommended Service Area: The EMTS Council has reviewed the service area for Windsor Severance Fire Protection District and foresees no concerns. Other EMTS Council recommendations or comments: The EMTS Council recommends that the Weld County Board of County Commissioner grant a Tier 1 Ambulance License to Windsor Severance Fire Protection District.
