One of many I'm sure. Sounds like they had issues long before the vote to apply even happened. Sounds like they aren't showing the need for bodies to the Council since they're saying the FD is overstaffed and efficient now. Has to be some numbers somewhere that say otherwise, and this is why documentation and educating the powers that be are so important....

Yes I would have to agree with you on those points for sure. Oh well just means somebody else in line gets funded this year!

Looks like Watertown NY city council is about to commit grant suicide by refusing their SAFER award even after the city council gave the go ahead in February to pursue it.

Good afternoon, I am new to all this. I applied for a recruitment and retention grant. Is it a good sign if they asked you to update your 1199a? They have also sent me a confirmation back saying it is updated.

See the response I left you in the Wait and See Bar and Grill thread.

I see they aren't to worried about helping with Retention or Recruitment for struggling volunteer departments.

I have several clients with 1199a's for R&R but they usually come after the hiring grants; patience grasshopper!
