When your child is not breathing.

When your home is on fire.

When someone you love is trapped in a vehicle.

Seconds determine survival.

Brain cells begin dying within four minutes without oxygen.

Fire can double in size every thirty to sixty seconds.

Cardiac arrest survival drops significantly with each passing minute.

Emergency response performance is not theoretical.

It is life and death math.

In 2024, the City of Round Rock commissioned an independent Standard of Cover study to evaluate emergency response performance.

That report identified the need to establish benchmark performance objectives and outlined deployment improvement opportunities as the city continues to grow.

Round Rock has grown significantly and is projected to continue growing.

As growth continues, performance benchmarks must be clearly defined and consistently met.

Proposition B ensures those benchmarks are measurable and enforceable.

NFPA 1710 is the nationally recognized benchmark for emergency response performance in career fire departments.

These standards exist because survival windows are short and outcomes depend on timely response.

Communities across the country recognize these benchmarks as best practice.

Round Rock families deserve measurable and accountable protection.

Without enforceable standards, performance benchmarks are recommendations.

Proposition B ensures:

Public safety should not depend on informal goals.
‍It should be measurable and accountable.

If the City already meets national benchmarks consistently, then Proposition B simply formalizes and protects that performance.

If improvements are needed, Proposition B ensures they are made in a timely manner.

Either way, the community benefits.
