Item For Consideration
For Board Review On: September 13, 2023 Prepared On: September 12, 2023
Agenda Item Topic: Fire MOU Amendment Prepared By: Finance
Report: The Fire Department was a participant in a regional grant that requested a total of
$4,315,312.30 of which Little Chute was to receive 7.32% or $315,880.86. The Village local
share would have been 5% of this amount or $15,794.04 for believe 35 radios.
We have been notified that the grant awarded is for a smaller amount. The attached first
amendment shows the approved grant request at only $1,988,702.98 of which we are to
receive $7.3% or 132,378.48 and our local share increases to 10% or $13,237.85 for revised 18
radios.
The Fire Department has verified that they will not be requesting to purchase additional radios
at full cost but do seek to obtain the 18 that we can attain at cost share of only 10%. Per
footnote, there is no obligation to purchase the original seated position number of radios.
Fiscal Impact:
The local share of $13,238 is currently included in the 2023 Fire Department Budget so no
additional spending authority is needed.
Recommendation/Board Action: The Fire Department is requesting approval of the first
amendment to this grant that allows them to proceed with obtaining 18 radios at a 10% cost
share versus the original 35 anticipated at a 5% cost share.
Respectfully Submitted,
Lisa Remiker-DeWall, Finance Director
