Council moves to apply for matching safety grant for turnout gear
Summary
Council introduced Resolution '20 26 0 0 8' authorizing the city to apply for a Safety Partners matching grant for turnout gear for the fire department; members said the city applies annually and the motion to apply was carried.
The Bolivar City Council introduced and approved Resolution 20 26 0 0 8, authorizing the city to participate in the Safety Partners matching grant program to obtain turnout gear for the fire department.
A councilmember noted the city applies for the grant each year and described it as a matching grant for turnout gear. "We apply for this grant every year," the councilmember said. A motion to approve the resolution was made and seconded, and the presiding officer announced the motion carried.
Council and fire officials indicated the grant would support turnout gear purchases, but the meeting did not record dollar amounts, exact match percentages or a vote tally in the transcript. Staff will proceed with the application process as authorized by the council.
