Fire Department launches survey

BRATTLEBORO — The Fire Department is seeking community input as part of an EMS study facilitated by AP Triton Consulting.

The firm, based in Wyoming, is conducting the study as part of a strategic plan for the next five years.

A brief, confidential online survey at surveymonkey.com/r/bfdcitizens seeks input and opinions from the community.

The results of the survey will be compiled and published in the final report, tentatively set to release in December.

On Tuesday, Oct. 18, a representative from AP Triton will attend the Selectboard meeting to provide more information and context for the project.

On Wednesday, Oct. 19, at 6 p.m., the firm will lead a public forum, both in-person at the Central Fire Station and streamed on Zoom.

In May, the Selectboard approved $38,721 to hire AP Triton, which specializes in consulting for fire services and provided a report for officials of Williston in 2021 to analyze the risks and vulnerabilities of that town's fire department.

The deadline for submissions of the survey is Monday, Oct. 31.
