Grant Funds

Grants are awarded for water supply and delivery items as outlined in the Master Fire Plan.  Items such as pressurized hydrants, dry hydrants, ponds, tankers, supply hose, suction hose, strainers, dump tanks, and valves are considered in the grant awards.   Basically anything needed to establish a water supply point or move water from the supply point to the scene of a fire can be considered for grant funds.  An initial grant is awarded to fire departments when the first Master Fire Plan is completed.
