I was an original <br />member of the committee responsible for the creation of the Heights Hillcrest Communication Center <br />which is now a part of CVD. The decision to merge our individual centers into a single agency was <br />fraught with difficulty and resistance, however, I am grateful that we persevered. The decision to create <br />the center allowed our agencies to create a far more effective dispatch center with the ability to cover <br />shifts, train at a high level, and operate with our mutual/automatic aid partners without the usual built <br />in delays. <br />Your decision to join CVD will allow your agencies to see many of the same benefits, although at an even <br />higher level than ever before based on experience gained overtime by the CVD family. The greatest <br />benefit is the ability to very quickly place units from mutual and automatic aid agencies on scene in your <br />jurisdiction. In the past, this was done by calling each agency individually and hoping that we could <br />obtain the equipment needed. The delays created from this system have been eliminated and we <br />always know that we will have a full compliment of apparatus at each emergency. <br />Nick D,Cicco has impressed me with his leadership and ability to effectively manage multiple locations <br />and the personnel associated with each center. Problems very seldom arise and are always quickly and <br />efficiently addressed. Joining CVD will improve your ability to serve your residents. Please feel free to <br />contact me with any questions. <br />Sincerely, <br />LUL tA <br />Chief Dave Freeman <br />(216291-2672 <br />dfreeman@clevela ndheightsndhe ehts. v <br />
