The Inspector Generals Report on Chicago Fire Department Response Times (more)

Excerpts from CBSChicago.com:

Chicago’s inspector general says the Chicago Fire Department is still not meeting nationwide standards for response time, despite being chided a year-and-a-half ago.

It was in 2013 when Chicago’s Inspector General Joe Ferguson concluded that the fire department was not meeting national standards, [saying] the city was using a statistically flawed method for calculating response times and because of the way [the department kept]  records, some of those records were missing.

Now the Inspector General has released a follow-up, saying basically that the fire department has done nothing to meet national standards. To view the report, click here.
