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 Fire Department. The grant is for $2,088,928.00, and the City will provide a match of $522,328.00. This item is currently under review by the City Commission. The project involves the procurement and delivery of a specialized fire apparatus. This will likely include ordering the truck, potential customization, and final acceptance and integration into the Fire Department's fleet. Businesses that supply fire equipment, specialized vehicles, or related maintenance services may find opportunities. Early engagement could be beneficial as the city finalizes the acquisition process.
