GCFD Seeks Input on First Strategic Plan
Feb 18 2025
The City of Goose Creek Fire Department is asking residents and business owners for input to help create the department’s first strategic plan.
City of Goose Creek Fire Chief Mike Nixon said the purpose of the plan is to get everyone in the department on the same page. They’ll get input from members of the department, the City of Goose Creek residents and business owners.
The survey asks what they need to work on and what they are doing well. That feedback will help them make a plan that will provide a clear and concise path moving forward. Nixon said it would also consider risk factors that could be faced in the future whether it’s internal or external with a response.
“Where are we excelling at, where are we failing at and kind of find a way to solve those issues. It could be something that people have had interactions with us on a fire scene where they thought we performed average. We don’t want to be average, we want to be above average,” Nixon said.
