SUMMARY EXPLANATION: The Federal Emergency Management Agency has established
the Firefighters Assistance Program designed to enhance basic fire service delivery throughout
the United States. The Firefighters Assistance Grant provides tools that allow firefighters to do
their job more safely, efficiently and effectively.
In March of 2002 the Yakima Fire Department submitted a grant application in the category of
Fire Operations and Firefighter Safety. The following items were included in our request:
Structural Personal Protection Equipment, Aircraft Rescue Personal Protective Equipment.
Emergency Medical Personal Protective Equipment, Vehicle Hearing Protection/Communication
Equipment and Wildland Personal Protection Equipment. The City has recently been notified
that an award of $126,720 was granted.
Staff respectively requests that Council approve the attached ordinance. which authorizes an
appropriation of $126,270, split between the Fire Operating and Emergency Services Budget.
This represents the total grant awarded to the City, and covers 70% of the cost. The remaining
30% match of $54,115 was already included in the 2003 budget, as this application was pending
at the time of budget development.
