Latest action: Passed
Firefighters get better training and safer protective gear If approved, the Fire Department would use $2 million to train paramedics, buy new turnout gear and EMS equipment, and give firefighters better physical exams.
Emergency response speed and quality could improve citywide Better paramedic training and newer EMS equipment mean ambulances could respond faster and treat people more effectively before they reach the hospital.
Grant approval is not guaranteed and requires federal review FEMA must approve the application, and the city would need to match some costs or follow specific rules about how the money gets spent.
