Copper Canyon Fire and Medical District and Verde Valley Fire District Establish a Joint Management Agreement for the Fire Chief Position.
In a move aimed at enhancing efficiency and collaborative efforts, the Copper Canyon Fire and Medical District (CCFMD) and Verde Valley Fire District (VVFD) proudly announce the establishment of a Joint Management Agreement for Fire Chief services. Discussions on this agreement have been ongoing since March of 2023 as both Fire Boards needed time to evaluate the potential impacts of this partnership to fire service in the Verde Valley Region. This collaborative initiative marks a significant step forward in enhancing efficiencies for fire and emergency services within the region, leveraging Chief Johnson’s leadership and knowledge of fire districts, and fostering cooperation between the two Districts. This partnership is set to usher in an era of cooperation and resource optimization in fire service leadership within the region.
Under this Agreement, Fire Chief Danny Johnson will assume a dual leadership role, serving as the Fire Chief for both CCFMD and VVFD. This collaboration is a testament to the commitment of both Fire Boards to preserve service delivery, promote shared expertise, and maximize the utilization of available resources. The Agreement underscores the Districts’ united dedication to the safety and well-being of the communities they serve.
