' � � . <br /> , <br /> ' I. PROJECT ABSTRACT <br /> , This agreement describes a project to implement Fire Station Location Package(FSLP) --a proven <br /> computer-based method for locating fire stations--in the City of Decatur, State of Illinois. This <br /> , project will provide the City with an effective method for developing an efficient configuration of fire <br /> starions designed to minimize response time. It will help local policy makers and fire department <br /> tofficials make better,more defensible decisions about how many fire stations are needed and where <br /> best to locate them within a framework of locally developed objectives and constraints. <br /> ' The project described in this agreement can be completed in appro�umately four to twelve <br /> months. The City will own the FSLP system at the conclusion of the project and will be able to apply <br /> ' the system for periodic updates as local conditions change. In addition, the data base developed for <br /> this FSLP project can be used for a variety of other community facility location problems. <br /> ' <br /> This agreement has been developed by Public Technology, Inc., (PTI),the applied science and <br /> ' technology arm of the National League of Cities and the International City Management Association. <br /> PTI has successfully transferred computer-based planning and management tools, including FSLP, <br /> ' to over 150 U.S.cities.
