The City of Palatka is planning to accept a USDA Rural Development grant for the purchase of two fire trucks. This grant is for $1,566,600, with the city contributing $522,328. This item is currently under review by the City Commission. If approved, the project will involve the procurement and delivery of two new fire trucks.

Local businesses that supply fire apparatus, related equipment, or provide maintenance services could find opportunities. Early engagement before final specifications and purchasing decisions are made may offer advantages.
