This reform of the organization of the firefighter profession has been implemented smoothly, without conflicts, because of colonel Michel Lafourcade’s consultation and dialogue skills.〔Nice Matin, ''La départementalisation officialisée'', 18 décembre 1998.〕〔Max Piselli, ''Un grand moment de ma vie d'élu'', Bélugue 83, Bulletin trimestriel de l'Union départementale des sapeurs-pompiers du Var, octobre 2010, pp 4-6.〕 He retired in 2002.〔Nice Matin, ''Le bilan du colonel Lafourcade'', 15 décembre 2002.〕 In addition to being a great firefighter, especially as representative of the regional directors from the sud-mediterranee zone, he has been an emeritus citizen of Draguignan.〔Ville de Draguignan, ''Extrait des registres des délibérations du conseil municipal'', n° 2006-142, séance du 29 novembre 2006.〕 Involved in the community life, particularly within the Rotary International where he created and chaired the ''Rotary Club Templiers'',〔Rotary International, ''La lettre du gouverneur'', district 1730, décembre 2006.〕 he took part in many humanitarian and charitable activities.
