In this service area there is approximately 19 miles of wildland/urban interface areas, a major rail yard, an international airport, a jail, two major mall complexes and four major interstate freeways. City of San Bernardino collision experience over the past three years has been: COLLISION July 1, 2002 - June 30, July 1, 2003 - June 30, July 1, 2004 - June 30, TYPE 2003 2004 2005 Traffic Collisions 3142 3330 3371 Fatality Involved 12 27 23 Alcohol Involved 166 259 235 Our statistics indicate that there has been an increase of service calls relating to traffic collisions in the past year. The population growth, change in volume and type of routine traffic, new and diverse traffic hazards, and a consistent increase in annual traffic emergencies has impacted our department and the community resources. As our community has continued to develop and modernize, our auto extrication equipment has not. Our highly specialized auto extrication equipment is outdated and thereby significantly less effective on new automobile technology. We strongly believe that by purchasing four sets of "frontline" extrication equipment we will be able to provide a much safer, efficient and effective rescue service to our community and all surrounding areas as part of the "Extrication Equipment Improvement Project." PERFORMANCE MEASURES PROJECT GOALS 1. To reduce the response time for apparatus equipped with extrication equipment by 10% by Mach 31, 2007. 2. To improve the response delivery through the replacement of out-dated and unreliable emergency/rescue equipment by September 30, 2007. 3. To increase the overall efficiency and effectiveness of all emergency operations at transportation related emergencies by September 30,2007.
