Board OKs grant-funded DGNA contract to update two-county wildfire protection plan
Summary
The board approved a professional services agreement with DGNA to update the two-county community wildfire protection plan for DES; speakers said the work is fully grant-funded and the grant award had been accepted previously.
Speaker 2 presented Item 7 seeking approval of a professional services agreement with DGNA to update the two-county community wildfire protection plan for DES. Speakers in the meeting confirmed the contract is fully grant-funded; Speaker 1 and others noted the grant award had been accepted and that the proposal from DGNA had been accepted at a prior meeting. The board moved and approved the services agreement by voice vote.
Why it matters: Updating a community wildfire protection plan can affect prevention, preparedness and resource allocation across the referenced two-county area; the work being grant-funded reduces local budgetary impact.
What’s next: The meeting did not record a timeline or the grant identifier; departmental staff assigned to DES will carry out the contract work under grant terms.
