The
Key Largo Fire Rescue & Emergency Medical Services District
was born on June 8, 2005 when Governor Bush approved Florida
Statute 2005-329 that created the 68th Special Taxing
District in the State of Florida.
Our State
Legislative Representative, Ken Sorensen, sponsored House Bill
1291 at the request of community and county leaders. The bill
unanimously passed both the Florida House and Senate.
Both the
volunteer fire and emergency medical services
organizations believed that by
establishing the district they would be able to:
► Offer
residents a higher-level of service at a lower cost,
► Provide
more direct control over revenue and expenses,
► Streamline
existing work processes to reduce administrative tasks,
► Foster
volunteerism, and
►
Remain
as volunteer departments.
Today,
the five-member elected KLFR&EMS
District Board contracts services from each of the
same separately-owned, non-profit 501.c(3) corporations that
have provided outstanding volunteer fire and emergency medical
services to Key Largo residents
for over 50 years.
Both volunteer departments
are
meeting and
exceeding state-mandated standards for:
►
Response times and
► Volunteer
qualifications.
