This Order will authorize the Fire department to apply for a FEMA Assistance to Fire Fighter Grant for
up to $75,000 with a required 10% local match of $7,500 for the replacement of fire gear lockers at
Central Fire Station and the purchase of 3 self-loading ambulance stretchers. The gear lockers for
the firefighters' protective gear at Central Fire Station are constructed of plywood and after 40 years
of service are in need of replacement. The cost of new ventilated metal lockers is $15,000. Self-
loading stretchers are a piece of equipment that have improved immensely over the last few years
and are especially helpful with heavy patients. The fire department does not currently operate any
of these stretchers and manually load patients in and out of a truck. The total cost for three units is
$60,000. The $75,000 grant application could be approved in entirety or by individual project.
