MANAGER’S COMMENTS
For
the 21st consecutive year, the Henrico County Department of
Finance’s Office of Management and Budget has prepared a financial report prior
to examination of the operating budget for the subsequent fiscal year. This unique Financial Trend Monitoring System document analyzes existing
economic conditions in Henrico
County through the use of
28 financial indicators and is updated annually to provide the Board with
historical information over an 11-year period.
Henrico County is one of only a handful of local
governments in the nation that produces this report prior to delving into the
annual budget.
The
Henrico County Division of Fire has received the 2006 “Best Practices in Fire
Service Health and Safety Award” from the Virginia Fire Chiefs Association
(VFCA). Chief Ronald L. Mastin accepted the award, including a $500 cash donation, on
behalf of his agency at VFCA’s 2007 Mid-Atlantic Expo
and Symposium held in Virginia Beach
on February 24. The Division of Fire was
the only career fire department honored by VFCA and was recognized for “Project
Impact,” a department-wide training program that placed firefighters and
uniformed lieutenants in a simulated environment so they could practice the
action steps and decision-making processes necessary to improve their odds of
escaping a burning commercial structure.
Mr. Donati presented an award plaque at the
Board meeting to Chief Mastin and the following
Division of Fire employees who were instrumental in the agency’s award-winning
effort: Training Division Chief Ed Smith,
Capts. William Poston and Chris Buehren, and Lt. Tony McDowell.
