Summary

City staff told the council they intend to obtain pricing for backup generators at City Hall (primary emergency operations center) and Fire Hall No. 1 (secondary), and that ARPA funds have been allocated for the work.

City staff told the Little Falls City Council they are seeking pricing to install backup generators at City Hall, the primary emergency operations center (EOC), and at Fire Hall No. 1, the designated secondary EOC.

A staff member said the city has allocated ARPA funds for the work and that staff would return to the council with firm pricing. “We will be getting pricing on those and get firm pricing on them to be able to bring them to you,” the staff member said.

Council discussion identified the two facilities as the headquarters for emergency response operations and said the generators are intended to keep the locations powered if utilities fail during a natural disaster.

No contract or procurement action was taken at the meeting; staff said they were in the planning and pricing stage.
