THE 30-SECOND BRIEF

What's planned

The St. Matthews Fire Protection District board received the preliminary FY 26/27 budget from Chief Clark at the May 21, 2026 meeting, with hard copies distributed for trustee review. The board plans to ask questions and propose changes before voting on a final budget at the June 2026 meeting.

What it means for vendors

This budget will shape funding for apparatus, station needs, training, EMS operations, technology, and contracted services across the district. Vendors selling fire and EMS equipment, software, consulting, and support services should see this as the window when new purchases, renewals, and capital projects are being prioritized and can still be influenced before line items are locked in.

Background

Supporting budget documents can be obtained by contacting the St. Matthews Fire Protection District as noted in the minutes.

Acting on pre-RFPs gives SLED and B2G vendors months of lead time to build relationships and shape requirements.
