AFMA Wants Your Opinion
Brian Curry
The Arizona Fire & Medical Authority is seeking feedback from residents to help with their five-year planning process.
Residents and business owners in Sun Lakes and other areas covered by AFMA are encouraged to answer an online questionnaire on the Authority website — afma.az.gov.
The governing board members and fire officers said the information will assist them in defining goals to improve their services.
They added the responses would help them to measure their current performance, to guide their ongoing efforts to improve their service, and to assist them in defining their goals.
“This information will also guide our ongoing efforts to improve our service,” said Eric Kriwer, Deputy Chief and Fire Marshall.
