BACKGROUND AND JUSTIFICATION (USE ADDITIONAL SHEETS AS NEEDED): Resolution 209 04, dated July 23, 2004, authorized the County of Hawai'I Fire Department to accept funds in the amount of $250,000 from the United States Department of Interior National Park Service, with the intent that these funds be used to purchase a structural fire engine for Fire Station 19 (Volcano). Since the $250,000 is insufficient to purchase a fully equipped fire truck, additional funding needed to complete the purchase is to be provided by County funds included in Fire Protection Account No. 010.221.5221.10.449, in the FY 04-05 County operating budget. jut',- DATE: 9/17/04 Department Head
