i. ADOPT RESOLUTION 2026-R-101 Accepting a Grant Award from the USDA Community Facilities

City Commission Meeting · 2026-05-28 · agenda_item

The City of Palatka is planning to accept a grant award from the USDA Community Facilities Grant Program to purchase an aerial ladder truck for the City of Palatka Fire Department. The grant amount is $2,088,928.00, with a required City match of $522,328.00. This item is currently under review by the City Commission. The project involves the procurement of a specialized fire apparatus, which will likely require related services for delivery, setup, and potential integration with existing equipment. Local contractors, suppliers, and service providers in areas such as vehicle acquisition, specialized equipment, and potentially fire safety systems could find opportunities. Engaging early, before final specifications and procurement processes are complete, may offer an advantage.
