Page 48 of 54 Cloquet Area Fire District ° 508 Cloquet Avenue Cloquet, MN 55720 ° Phone: (218) 499-4258 Fax: (218) 499-4289 FIRE Dlsrmc-1‘ 9-21-2023 Tim Peterson City Administrator Cloquet, Minnesota Mr. Peterson, Included is a resolution passed by the Cloquet Area Fire District Board of Directors on 9-20-2023 relating to public safety aid that I ask you present to the Cloquet City Council. In 2023, the City of Cloquet will be receiving $556,397 in one-time public safety aid from the State of Minnesota to be utilized for police, ?re, rescue and associated expenses relating to public safety. The Cloquet Area Fire District is of?cially requesting a portion of that aid to be expended for speci?c projects relating to the health and safety of our staff, and to enhance emergency response within the City of Cloquet and our service area. There are two systems we need to fund that will greatly impact the health, safety and capability of our emergency response organization. These systems are commonplace in modern ?re stations a11dtheir purchase and installation has been delayed due to many years of funding challenges. A vehicle exhaust system and station alerting system will signi?cantly improve our ability to safely and ef?ciently answer over 3,300 calls for service each year, with many of those occurring in the City of Cloquet. The total cost of these systems is estimated at $165,000. We ask that you strongly consider contributing $165,000 of the public safety aid Cloquet will receive from the State of Minnesota to the Cloquet Area Fire District so that we can purchase and install these important systems in our primary ?re station at 508 Cloquet Avenue at the earliest opportunity. As pait of my research into the legality of this use of public safety aid, I spoke with Kristie Strum of the MN Department of Revenue who con?rmed that this was not a prohibited use of funds and therefore a legitimate expense for the City of Cloquet in regards to the one-time public safety aid. Please contact me at your earliest convenience to discuss further, I appreciate your consideration of my request.
