RECOMMENDATION: The Fire Department has been awarded the Arkansas Firewise Grant for 2017. The Fire Department will use the $500.00 for minor equipment such as special wildland fire rakes, hand tools, posters, and educational materials to assist with assigned job tasks. DISCUSSION: The Arkansas Forestry Commission provides financial assistance to help fire departments educate and assist municipalities in becoming fire safe communities through the Firewise Program. The goal of this program is to bring awareness to the dangers of wildland fire within the urban environment. This awareness is brought about through assessing residential and commercial property and identifying hazards that might exist_ Once wildland fire hazards have been identified then efforts are made to help facilitate the property owners in reducing their fire danger risk. BUDGET/STAFF IMPACT: There is no requirement for matching funds so there should be no impact to budgeted expenses. Attachments: Budget Adjustment Mailing Address: 113 W.
