Date: January 25, 2016
Item/Subject: Authorizing the Fire Department to submit a Grant Application to FM
Global Company for $3,000 for the Purchase of two Computer
Tablets.
Responsible Department: Fire
Commentary: This Order will authorize the Fire Department to submit a grant
application for $3,000 to FM Global for two Computer Tablets. FM Global is an Industrial
Insurance Company that provides Fire Prevention Grants to Fire Departments with no required
matching funds from the department. The funds will be used to purchase two computer tablets
for the Fire Inspectors to use while on inspections. The tablets will increase the efficiency,
tracking and reporting of violations, as well as improve quality assurance of inspections. These
tablets will also enhance the effectiveness of both residential and commercial inspections
programs. This was reviewed and recommended for approval at the January 20, 2016
Government Operations Committee meeting.
