Agenda Item
Resolution - Lubbock Fire Rescue:
Consider a resolution authorizing the City Manager to apply for grant funding from the Office of the Governor of Texas, Homeland Security Division, on behalf of Lubbock Fire Rescue, for travel and training.
Item Summary
Lubbock Fire Rescue will be requesting available grant funding in the amount of $61,000, for travel and training for new members of the Heavy Rescue Team. Basic training will include High Angle Rescue, Trench Rescue, Swift Water Rescue, and Confined Space Rescue that will be offered at a number of certified training sites across the state.
Beginning this year, South Plains Association of Governments, the agency, through which state funds are coordinated and distributed, has implemented a new policy that requires a resolution acknowledging acceptance of the responsibilities of the applicant, as well as identification of the custodial officer be considered and approved, by their respective governing body, as a gesture of accountability. Passage of this resolution will comply with this provision and permit the submission of a grant application.
