PURPOSE: The EMS Office of the Medical Director (“EMS”) requests the approval of the application to renew the Certificate of Public Convenience and Necessity (“COPCN” or “Certificate”) for the City of Winter Park Fire-Rescue Department (“WPFD”) to provide Advanced Life Support (“ALS”) transport services. WPFD has submitted the attached application requesting the renewal of its COPCN which has been in effect since 1996. In accordance with the Orange County Code of Ordinances, EMS has reviewed WPFD’s renewal application. EMS has not received any substantial and material complaints against WPFD, and the status of WPFD has not substantially and materially changed. Accordingly, EMS recommends that the Orange County Board of County Commissioners renew WPFD’s Certificate.
