Today was the kcstairclimb Kansas City’s 9/11 Stair Climb. This is the 25th Anniversary of the terrible terrorist attack on the Twin Towers that claimed the lives of 343 of New York’s Bravest. It should also be remembered that literally hundreds more have died of 9/11 related illnesses since then.

The people who put this massive event on every year do a great job! We salute their efforts, right down to the last volunteer who helps make this possible!

We are always full of pride for the efforts our great people make to commemorate the bravery and sacrifice made by each and every first responder who responded on that day. CFD2 had another strong showing with 18 of our Firefighters climbing 110 floors to honor and remember those who gave it all. 🇺🇸 #343

Today let’s dive into the economic value of preserving property. This graphic conveys some great information about the Return on Investment we provide taxpayers in the 8 cities we proudly serve. Most of us would love to have the kind of return on investment in our personal portfolio that we deliver the public we serve!

One of the most critical calls we run is a Cardiac Arrest. Literally, someone has ceased living and without trained, high quality intervention - they will not likely survive! CFD2 is proud to have a documented “Utstein” score for resuscitation of Cardiac Arrest that is a remarkable 50%! The National Average is 36.5%, so we far exceed that threshold! It is commonplace today to have a resident stop by and introduce themselves, to take time and tell the story of how their heart had stopped and our great folks extended their life! While we wish we could save everyone, this metric is a tangible value to the communities we serve!

Over the last 10 years, CFD2 has lowered our Mill Levy (tax rate) by 1.761 Mills! We never take these matters lightly, but your Fire District needs a small adjustment of a 0.35 Mill increase to combat economic pressures and continue the premier service we provide to the 8 great cities we proudly serve! We humbly ask for the support of businesses and residents in our communities - this infographic explains the details.
