We put out requests for proposals for SCBA manufacturers. We should be receiving it <br />by the end of the month and most likely next month I will have legislation to pass to funnel the <br />funds through Northfield Village. I wanted to keep everyone informed. There is 90% coverage <br />on the federal and 10% on our end to replace the packs that we have. All the bottles were <br />expiring within the next two years so we were going to have to look at replacing them anyways. <br />They are about 15 years behind the times in terms of safety standards. <br />Also, I went to Minnesota on Thursday and Friday for a pre-build meeting with the fire truck <br />manufacturer. We went through the entire spec on the vehicle. I wanted to make sure everything <br />we expected to get is going to be received. The paint will match. <br />Council President Pro Tem Marrie congratulated Chief Carcioppolo on the grant. <br />Chief Cazcioppolo replied, it was regional. It wasn't me.
