RESOLUTION ACCEPTING A GRANT FROM MINNESOTA ENERGY
Proposed Action
Staff recommends adoption of the following motion: Approve resolution to accept $1540.00
grant to the Lakeville Fire Department (LFD) from Minnesota Energy.
Passage of this motion will provide funds to be used towards the purchase of Carbon Monoxide
Detectors.
Overview
The Lakeville Fire Department Staff applied for a grant through Minnesota Energy Safety Grant
Program. This grant will provide Lakeville Fire Department the opportunity to purchase Carbon
Monoxide Detectors that are carried on medical bags to alert firefighters if they are in a
dangerous atmosphere.
Some grants and donations may require the City to incur additional expenditures in order to
comply with grant agreements and restricted donations; therefore, staff is seeking authority to
amend the budget, as appropriate.
Primary Issues to Consider
• Acknowledgement of grant acceptance.
• Chief Meyer will draft a “Thank You” letter following Council’s approval of this
resolution.
