I am in the middle of quite a story developing in Apopka, Florida that highlights the value of an independent study of your FD. Our review exposed deficiencies across the board following the LODD of a young firefighter, Austin Duran. Instead of accepting the facts and acting on them, the Mayor and city attorney have pushed back on the report language, findings, and threatened my livelihood. Luckily the union membership, the Duran family, all the commissioners and the public are fighting this madness and right will prevail.
Could be a major moment in the industry for departments and members being ignored by their leaders.
Be proactive, not reactive and get an independent assessment of your FD.
