History
Presently the resources at Fire Station
85 and Fire Station 112 cover the area that will become Fire Station
36’s district. Fire Station
36 will service the community of San Pedro.
The district that new Fire/Paramedic Station 36 will cover is predominately
residential with oil refineries and harbor waterfront.
Reason
for Project
Response times in this area do not meet
the Fire Department’s goal of 5 minutes 90% of the time. Because
of the relatively long distance to the subject area, the only remedy is to
build a fire station within the area.
Projected
Resource Workloads
Community planning census information and Fire
Department historical incident data have been used to project resource
workloads. It is projected that the number of responses will
increase 12.1% for apparatus
assigned to the San Pedro
area will increase by the year 2010. |
Service Area Population Growth
Community planning census information indicates that the population
growth for San Pedro has increased steadily and is projected to
increase to 88,927, which is a 22.3% increase by the year 2010.
