Cedar Area Fire & Rescue (CAFR) received a resolution of appreciation this month by its governing board.
At its Dec. 13 meeting the board unanimously adopted a resolution recognizing the agency’s recent license as an Advanced Life Support (ALS) Transporting Agency.
Initially, the department was licensed to provide Basic Life Support as they had been under the Solon-Centerville Township Fire Department. However, this changed in 2016 when a new, four-township organization was formed with a goal of improving service for the residents of Solon, Centerville, Cleveland and Kasson townships. “It has been wonderful to see the changes in the department over the last decade,” said former Glen Arbor Fire Chief John DePuy, an ad hoc member of the CAFR board. He had recently returned from France, where he had the opportunity to tour Omaha Beach.
