ACM Burden, along with Fire-Rescue and Police personnel were present at the recent public safety day presented to preschoolers at the Miramar United Pre-School where fire safety, related careers and positive law enforcement interactions were taught to the children at the school.

While speaking with Miramar News about his new role, ACM Burden was excited to share some of his vision with us and had this to say, “I am truly honored to have been given the opportunity to oversee Public Safety in my hometown, Miramar. I bring over 35 years of experience in this field to Miramar. Moving forward the plan is for both Fire and Police to work in tandem in our delivery of service. Citizens should expect from both departments, increased community engagement, access and greater accountability. I believe community involvement in Public Safety is vital for achieving our goals of community safety.”

We welcome ACM Burden and look forward to the continued partnership of our Public Safety departments.
