From the meeting
The council scheduled first reading of an ordinance to accept and administer a FEMA Assistance to Firefighters grant for education and training with a required local match. The agenda does not give a dollar amount, but it does confirm grant-funded training activity for fire services. The vote was pending at the October 6, 2026 meeting.
This is a grant implementation lead tied to training vendors and related program support.
