The Fire Risk and Service Delivery model was developed to measure life & property risks in conjunction with fire service delivery within City of Austin.  The results show a need for additional stations based on the current risk and response times.

2016 Model Results

1. Travis Country area (immediate need)

2. Loop 360 area (immediate need)

3. Manchaca/Slaughter area (area to watch)

4. Goodnight Ranch area (immediate need)

5. Moore's Crossing area (immediate need)

6. Canyon Creek area (immediate need)

*Immediate Need-Area has significant development, increased population and response time which are substantially below AFD's goal of 8 mins (call receipt to onscene, 90%).

*Area to Watch-Area has significant development, increased population and response time which are substantially below AFD's goal of 8 mins (call receipt to onscene, 90%).

-New fire station in area have been funded and could impact response time positively.  Will review after stations have been in place to determine if additional station is needed.
