Background/Summary: 

In the 2020/21 Capital Budget, City Council approved Fire Rescue’s request to purchase Firefighting Bunker Gear. This purchase is part of the Department’s 10-year capital replacement plan that provides for the purchase of new Firefighting Bunker Gear every three years. The Firefighting Bunker Gear currently being worn by Fire personnel will be placed in reserve status which will allow every person to have a replacement set of gear to use when their gear is being cleaned, repaired or if completely destroyed to be in service until a new set can be obtained.

This effort will enhance the physical resources of Fire Rescue which in complement, improves responses to emergency services and adheres to the City’s Comprehensive Plan concerning adequate Fire and EMS equipment.
