SUMMARY

 

ACFD recently released a Request for Proposals (“RFP”) for private ambulance providers in order to develop a proposal that would be submitted to Alameda County in the summer of 2023 as a competitive bid for ambulance services in the County.  Cities and Fire Departments within Alameda County have an opportunity to come together in negotiations with ACFD to refine this proposal and the terms and conditions of City participation in the model.
