Citizens are allowed 3 minutes to speak. The City Council is unable to respond to or to discuss any issues
that are brought up during this section.
Councilman Ervin clarified that citizens can speak under citizens input on any item
that is not on the agenda. This was an issue at a previous City Council meeting when
a citizen was not allowed to speak.
Mayor clarified that he does not have to allow a citizen to speak on any item that is on
the agenda. This has been clarified by City Manager after speaking to the City
Attorney,
Lindall Mitchell, 7083 Falcon Loop, Sanger, Texas, addressed the City Council and
advised he has registered to run for the school board. He is very involved with the
school system and would like to build a better relationship between the school and the
City, especially during the growth that is occurring in Sanger.
Rita Jo Lovetro, 804 S. 3''", Sanger, Texas, addressed the Council concerning the
electric service on the other part of town. Those residents have Co -Sere and this side
of town does not. She has been under the impression and has been told they have no
choice on what utility company they can use. She needs information on who supplies
the electric power and has questions. She was upset since her bill was so high and feels
it is unfair they can't choose who they want as a utility provider.
Mayor advised that he could not respond to her questions.

bill and provide answers to her questions.

6. Consider and Possible Action on Resolution R#03-06-07 For Adoption of Thorough-
fare Map.
Ms. Carson addressed City Council and advised that the Steering Committee met on
February 15, 2007 to review the thoroughfare map. Planning & Zoning and the 4A
Board also reviewed the map. They received feed back from elected and appointed
oMetals and there were some amendments made to the map. Dan Boutwell, with
MPRG recommended that roads that are shown on the map are conceptual in nature
and none of the roads are necessarily exactly where the road would be, but would be
in the general area.
Ms. Carson advised that Joe Falls addressed Planning &Zoning at their meeting on
March 1, 2007, and was concerned about the road at connection of the Loop bypass
by Indian Lane down to McReynolds Road. The road is only conceptual in nature on
the map. The Council needs to move forward to adopt; however, if there is a concern
they can omit the road from the map. The Planning and Zoning is asking that the road
from Indian Lane south to McReynolds be deleted.
Ms. Carson also indicated that they will continue discussions with Mr. Boutwell and
if he feels that they need to make the link then it will go back to Planning & Zoning and
the City Council before the Master Plan is finished.
They will come back on March 19, 2007, with subdivision regulation requirements so
that this can be implemented. There will be opportunities between now and December
to make adjustments.
Councilman James moved to approve Resolution R#03-06-07 for adoption of the
Thoroughfare Map. Seconded by Councilman Walker. Motion carried unanimously.
7. Possible List of Future Agenda Items.

Re: City Presentation and Public Discussion on Utility Rates
Staff in preparation to provide as much information, has asked our auditor, Bill Spore, and a
representative from Brazos Electric to be in attendance at the meeting. I am attaching a comparison
of rates of different utility companies and this will be on a poster board for citizens to review.
The PCA factor is what citizens are upset about; however, the biggest impact was to all electric
homes. This impacted citizens including myself with higher electric utility bills.
The cost comparison in the market with other utilities is not out of line.

Re: Fire and Emergency Response Grant
David Pennington will be present at the meeting to discuss the Fire and Emergency Response Grant
with the City Council.
Who is eligible for SAFER funding?
Your type of organization affects your eligibility for funding in any of the SAFER activities. All volunteer or
combination volunteer fire departments may apply for either or both of the two SAFER activities. Volunteer
firefighter interest organizations are eligible for funding only in the Recruitment and Retention of Volunteer
Firefighters Activity. Career fire departments are eligible for funding only in the Hiring of Firefighters Activity.
Eligible Organization
SAFER Activity Eligibility
• Hiring Firefighters AND
• Volunteer and Combination Fire Departments Recruitment and Retention of Volunteer
Firefighters
Career Fire Departments
Statewide and Local Volunteer Firefighter Interest
Organizations
Hiring Firefighters ONLY
Recruitment and Retention of Volunteer Firefighters
ONLY
How does the Federal share and applicant matching share for the Hiring Firefighters Activity work?
Recipients of grants in the Hiring of Firefighters Activity must commit to a 5-year period of performance
during which the Federal contribution toward the costs of the salaries will diminish over the course of the
performance period, with all costs borne by the grantee in Year Five. Based on a total funding cap of
$103,500 over 5 years, the maximum annual Federal share of funds that grantees can receive under
SAFER for salary and benefits for newly hired firefighters will not exceed the lesser of the following:
Grant Year Federal Share Per Firefighter Position
Year One 90 percent of the actual costs or $37,217, whichever is less
Year Two 80 percent of the actual costs or $33,082, whichever is less
Year Three 50 percent of the actual costs or $20,676, whichever is less
Year Four 30 percent of the actual costs or $12,405, whichever is less
Year Five No Federal share
If I receive a SAFER award, how much time do I have to hire the firefighters?
The SAFER grant performance period does not start until 90 days after the award announcement. This
delay provides grantees with an opportunity to recruit new firefighters. Not all grantees will need the full 90
days, and some may need more. Grantees that can recruit and hire a firefighter before the start of the
performance period may request pre -award costs to be included in their grant. Grantees that take more than
90 days will be losing an opportunity to receive Federal cost share.
May I apply for more than one firefighter position, with different salaries and benefits for each?
A department that is eligible for the Hiring of Firefighters Activity may apply for multiple entry-level positions
that have the same salary or have varying salaries and benefits. To make such a request, click "Add Budget
Item" in the "Request Details" section of the online application. Complete the information required, and click
"Save and continue." Repeat the "Add Budget Item" steps until you have added all the positions you wish to
request.
What type of firefighter positions will be funded?
Only full-time firefighter positions will be funded. Full-time positions are those that are funded for at least
2,080 hours per year (i.e., 40 hours per week, 52 weeks per year.) The Grant Program recognizes that many
fire departments have shifts beyond this typical 40-hour work week. The Grant Program will consider funding
job -share positions if there is sufficient justification.
What is a job�hare position?
A job -share position is a full-time position that is occupied by more than one person.

FOR
Purpose and Overview of the SAFER Grants
The purpose of the Staffing for Adequate Fire and Emergency Response (SAFER)
grants is to help fire departments increase their cadre of firefighters. The program's goal
is to enhance the local fire departments' ability to attain and maintain 24-hour staffing,
thus assuring their communities have adequate protection from fire and fire -related
hazards. The SAFER grants have two activities that will help grantees in this endeavor:
(1) hiring of firefighters and (2) recruitment and retention of volunteer firefighters.
Congress appropriated a total of $110 million to the Department of Homeland
Security (DHS) to carry out the activities of the SAFER grants. The authority for SAFER
is derived from the Federal Fire Prevention and Control Act of 1974 (15 U.S.C. 2201 et
seq.) as amended. Appropriated funds are available for award until September 30, 2007.
Once awarded, the funds are available for expenditure by the grantee for the full period of
grant performance.
Hiring of Firefighters
The Hiring of Firefighters Activity is a five-year grant that provides fire
departments with funding to pay a portion of the salaries of newly hired firefighters.
These newly hired positions must be in addition to authorized and funded active
firefighter positions. Grantees must maintain the number of authorized and funded
positions as declared at the time of application and maintain the awarded new firefighter
positions throughout the five-year period of performance. Grantees that fail to maintain
this level of staffing risk losing their grant. Volunteer, combination, and non-profit
career fire departments are all eligible to apply for assistance in Hiring of Firefighters
Activity. These grants require the grantee to match an increasing portion of the salary
over a four-year period, in the fifth year of the grant, the grantee must fund the entire cost
of any positions funded as a result of a grant award.
The long-term nature of the eligible activities under these grants makes it essential
that an applicant's local governing body be involved in the application process. As such,
each applicant certifies in their application that their governing body has been informed
of the applicant's intention to submit a SAFER grant request, that the local governing
body acknowledges the commitment required for the grant if awarded, and that
appropriate financial support will be secured for the applicant's cost -sharing obligations.
The commitment from the local governing body is critical to the success of any grant
awarded under this program. As such, DHS may require that applicants provide
documentation from the local governing body that affirms this support.
Once a SAFER funded position is filled, the funded position must remain filled
until the end of the period of performance. During the five-year period of performance,
SAFER grantees must also maintain their staffing at a level equal to, or greater than, their
staffing level at the time of application. In the event that the staffing level falls below the
staffing level at application, or if a funded position becomes vacant or otherwise inactive,
v will consider the grantee to be in default of their grant agreement if the position is
NOT filled or staffing levels decline for an extended period of time (e.g., six months or
more). Grantees that do not fulfill their grant award obligations will be required to return
the defaulted portion of the Federal funds disbursed for the funded position under the
grant award. For example, if one of four positions funded by SAFER is vacated for an
extended period time, we would require the grantee to remit all Federal funds disbursed
for that one position. If staffing levels decline before the level required above and this
deficiency is not corrected within six months, DHS may require the grantee to return all
grant funds.
The national standards that SAFER grants will help fire departments meet are the
standards promulgated by the National Fire Protection Association (NFPA):
• NFPA 1710 Standard for the Organization and Deployment of Fire Suppression
Operations, Emergency Medical Operations, and Special Operations to the Public
by Career Fire Department (Section 5.2.4.2 — Initial Full Alarm Assignment
Capability). This standard primarily applies to all -career fire departments and
combination departments at the combination department's election.
• NFPA 1720 Standard for the Organization and Deployment of Fire Suppression
Operations, Emergency Medical Operations, and Special Operations to Public by
Volunteer Fire Departments (Section 4.3 — Staffing and Deployment). This
standard primarily applies to all -volunteer fire departments, but may also apply to
combination departments if the combination department does not elect to comply
with the NFPA 1710 standard.
Note: The SAFER grants are focused only on the "Deployment" or "Staffing and
Deployment" sections of these two standards (respectively). Information about these
standards is available on the on the NFPA Website at www.nfpa.org. The National Fire
Protection Association has established a special link that provides information about
these two standards. For more information on the standards, contact NFPA at 1400-344-
3555, or e-mail questions to stds admin cr,nfpa.org.
Recruitment and Retention of Volunteer Firefighters
The Recruitment and Retention of Volunteer Firefighters Activity provides
assistance to grantees for periods of up to four years. The purpose of these grants is to
assist with the recruitment and retention of volunteer firefighters. Volunteer departments,
combination departments and local or statewide organizations that represent the interests
of volunteer firefighters are eligible to apply for assistance under this activity. There are
no non -Federal match requirements for this activity.
5
Definitions
For the purposes of the SAFER grants, the following definitions shall apply.
Automatic -aid: An agreement whereby fire departments are dispatched simultaneously
on the initial alarm or where fire departments participate in "closest -unit" response
dispatching.
Career Fire Department: An agency or organization in which all members receive
financial compensation for their services (organizations that provide reimbursement on a
paid -on -call basis are considered to be a "combination fire department" for the purposes
of this program).
Combination Fire Department: An agency or organization in which at least one active
firefighter receives financial compensation for their services (including paid -on -call)
and/or at least one active firefighter does not receive financial compensation for their
services, other than life and health insurance and workers' compensation insurance.
Fire Department: An agency or organization that has a formally recognized arrangement
with a State, territory, local, or tribal authority (city, county, parish, fire district,
township, town, or other governing body) to provide fire suppression on a first -due basis
to a fixed geographical area. Fire departments may be comprised of members who are all
volunteer, all career, or combination of volunteer and career.
Firefighter: An individual having the legal authority and responsibility to engage in fire
suppression; being employed by a fire department of a municipality, county, or fire
district; being engaged in the prevention, control, and extinguishing of fires; and/or
responding to emergency situations in which life, property, or the environment is at risk.
This individual must be trained in fire suppression, but may also be trained in emergency
medical care, hazardous materials awareness, rescue techniques, and any other related
duties provided by the fire department.
Initial Full Alarm Assignment: Those personnel, equipment, and resources ordinarily
dispatched upon nocation of a structural fire.
Mutual -aid: An agreement whereby assisting fire departments are dispatched only when
the first -arriving unit on a scene calls for assistance.
Non -supplanting: The SAFER grant will not provide assistance to fund positions that are
currently funded by the applicant. In other wot•ds, the grantees cannot use the Federal
grant dollars to substitute for their own budget. Awardees must maintain the number of
firefighters they stipulated at the time of application, plus the funded SAFER positions,
through out the period of performance.
Operational budget: The budget that supports fire -related programs and/or emergency
response activities (salaries, maintenance, equipment, apparatus, etc.).
on
State: For the purpose of these grants, "State" is defined as the 50 States, the District of
Columbia, Puerto Rico, the U.S. Virgin Islands, Guam, American Samoa, and the
Commonwealth of the Northern Mariana Islands.
Statewide or local firefighter interest organizations: Statewide and local firefighter
interest groups are organizations that are in existence to support or represent the interests
of firefighters in front of legislative bodies at the local, State and Federal level. Such
organizations include state or local firefighter and/or fire chiefs associations, fire
department auxiliaries, volunteer firefighter relief organizations and associations. DHS
shall make the final determination as to whether an applicant is an appropriate firefighter
interest group.
Stang and Deployment: The minimum staffing requirements to ensure that a sufficient
number of members are available to operate safely and effectively as defined in NFPA
1710 and 1720.
Volunteer Fire Department: An agency or organization in which no member receives
financial compensation (salary, wages, or stipend per call) for their services other than
life and health insurance and workers' compensation insurance. We consider a
department to be mostly volunteer if 51 percent or more of its membership is made up of
personnel who do not receive financial compensation for their services.
�l��,lication Process
Eligible applicants can apply for a SAFER grant online via the DHS "e-grants"
application process. The online application can be accessed through the following
websites: the USFA Website at www.usfa.fema Gov, or the Website of the Assistance to
Firefighters Grants (AFG) program at www.fire rg antsupport.com, or accessed directly at
https://portal.fema.gov.
Potential applicants must be aware that eligibility is contingent upon a stable
budget. Grants will not be awarded to a municipality or other recipient whose annual
operational budget has been reduced below 80 percent of the average annual funding in
the three years prior to the date of application.
Each department or organization can submit only one application per application
period. Applicants may apply for either the Hiring of Firefighters or for the Recruitment
and Retention of Volunteer Firefighters or both on the same application. However, we
will evaluate applications that include requests for both activities in their entirety and
fund them accordingly, i.e., we will not make a partial award for one of the two activities.
It is not necessary to for the applicant to write two separate narratives, however,
applicants that are requesting assistance in both activities should be sure to address both
activities under each of the applicable narrative elements (see pages 12 and 13 for details
regarding the requisite narrative elements).
'll
The system will allow one authorized representative of a department to log in and
create a username and password for the department. Previous grant applicants for the
Assistance to Firefighters Grant (AFG) Program or the Fire Prevention and Safety Grants
MUST USE THE SAME USERNAME AND PASSWORD THAT WAS USED FOR
THEIR PREVIOUS APPLICATIONS. The selection of the authorized representative
is at the discretion of each applicant.
Automated Application
The automated SAFER grant application is designed with many built-in "Help"
screens and drop -down menus to assist you throughout the application process. The
application can be saved and retrieved as many times as necessary until the deadline or
submittal. However, once you've submitted your application, you cannot change it.
The automated system will not allow you to submit an incomplete application, i.e., the
system will alert you if you have not provided required information. You will be
automatically notified via e-mail that we have received your application.
Online Tutorial
An applicant tutorial will be available on the AFG program's website at
www.fire r antsupport.com. This tutorial explains the SAFER grant program and
priorities for funding, describes the application screens, and provides information for
applicants that will assist them in developing a comprehensive, competitive and well
organized application.
Additionally, the tutorial will be accessible while the applicant completes the
online application. By clicking the "Tutorial" button on the application screen, the user
will be able to view the tutorial information about the specific application screen on
which they are currently working.
Application
Applications for SAFER grants will be accepted on or about May 30, 2006, to
June 30, 2006. Monitor the AFG program and USFA Websites for up-to-date
information on the dates of the application period. Completed applications must be
submitted electronically or otherwise received by the AFG program office on or before
the close of business (5 p.m. EDT) on the last day of the application period. No late,
incomplete, or faxed applications will be accepted. No electronically submitted
applications other than those submitted online via the automated grant application system
will be accepted.
If you do not have access to the Internet, contact us directly (1-866-274-0960) to
request a paper copy of the application via mail. We will not send the paper applications
to you via overnight delivery, fax or a -mail. The only legitimate paper application is the
application that the AFG program office sends you —do not use any paper application
that you did not receive directly from the AFG program office. Do not print the screens
from the online application and submit them as your application. Any paper application
that is not in the correct format will be deemed ineligible.
Paper applications are accepted but we discourage their use because of the
inherent delays and mistakes associated with processing a paper application. Also, if
awarded, applicants who submit paper applications must continue to manage their grants
via paper, including payment requests, requests for modifications, reporting, etc., whereas
electronic applicants can do all of these functions online. In addition, paper applications
do not have the built-in "Help" screens that are available to the online applicants.
Finally, there are no assurances that your paper application is complete when submitted.
Paper applications submitted by mail must be postmarked no later than four
calendar days before the end of the application period. Assuming a June 30, 2006, end -
date, applications that are postmarked after June 27, 2006, will not be accepted unless
they are received before the end of the application period. Applications that are not
submitted electronically must be mailed to the following address:
above.
SAFER Grant Office Technical Assistance Center
c/o U.S. Fire Administration
16825 South Seton Avenue
Emmitsburg, Maryland 217274998
DHS will not accept applications mailed to any address other than the one listed
Application Overview
The application includes general questions about your department (ar
organization) and your community, as well as questions regarding your proposed activity.
After you have completed the general questions, you will be asked to complete a series of
questions relative to the activity you have selected.
Next, you will be required. to provide a written narrative statement describing
your planned activity. The narrative portion of your application should provide the AFG
program office with specifics about your project or projects. Specific elements that are
required to be addressed in the narrative are detailed in the appropriate activity sections
below.
We recommend that you type your narrative offline in any word processing
software, such as Word, Word Perfect, Notepad, etc. Once your narrative is complete,
you can copy it or "cut -and -paste" it from your word-processing document into the
Narrative Statement block in the application. Space for the narrative is limited, so your
narrative should not exceed six pages. Do NOT type your narrative using only capital
letters.
lJ
You may decide to hire or engage a grant writer to assist you in the application
process. However, as the applicant, you are responsible for the information contained in
your application. By submitting the application, you are certifying that all of the
information contained therein is true and an accurate reflection of your department.
Therefore, prior to submission, it is imperative that you review all work produced by
grant writers or other third parties on your behalf. Applicants who falsify their
applications or misrepresent their organizations in any manner will have their
applications deemed ineligible by the AFG program office and referred to the DHS
Office of the Inspector General for further action, as appropriate.
DUNS Number
Effective October 1, 2003, all Federal grantees must obtain a DUNS number, a
unique nine -character identification number provided by the commercial company Dun &
Bradstreet. The Federal government will use the DUNS number to better identify related
organizations that receive funding under grants and cooperative agreements and to
provide consistent name and address data for electronic grant applications. Additional
information about DUNS numbers can be found on the Dun & Bradstreet Website
(hgps://eupdate.dnb.com/reguestoptions/govemMgnt/ccrreg).
There is no charge to obtain a DUNS number, and it is the applicant`s
responsibility to obtain one. Applicants are encouraged to apply for a DUNS number
well in advance of the application period because it may take up to two weeks or more to
obtain the number online. It is recommended that applicants request a DUNS number as
soon as possible by calling 1=866405-5711. When completing the online application,
there is a special data field for entering the DUNS number. If applying on paper, use the
box entitled "Federal Identifier" on the SF 424, Application for Federal Assistance, to
enter the DUNS number. This number is required for all Federal grant applications, and
extensions will not be granted for applicants who were unable to obtain their number
prior to the end of the application period.
Criteria Development Process
Each year, the AFG program office conducts a criteria development meeting to
develop the funding priorities for the coming year. A panel of fire service professionals
representing the nine major fire service organizations is convened. The organizations
that are represented include the International Association of Fire Chiefs (IAFC), the
International Association of Firefighters (IAFF), the National Volunteer Fire Council
(NVFC), the National Fire Protection Association (NFPA), the National Association of
State Fire Marshals (NASFM), the International Association of Arson Investigators
(IAAI), the North American Fire Training Directors (NAFTD), and the Congressional
Fire Service Institute (CFSI).
The criteria development panel is charged with making recommendations to the
AFG program office regarding the creation and/or modification of previously established
funding priorities as well as developing criteria for awarding grants and proposing any
10
necessary changes to the administration of the SAFER grants. The content of this
Program Guidance reflects our implementation of the criteria development panel's
recommendations with respect to the priorities, direction, and criteria for awarding grants
as they relate to the Staffing for Adequate Fire and Emergency Response grants.
Evaluation Process
All complete and eligible applications will be ranked based on the substance of
the application relative to the established SAFER grant funding priorities. The answers
to activity -specific questions provide us with the information that we use to determine
your application's ranking, relative to stated priorities.
Volunteer and combination fire departments are eligible to apply for both the
Hiring of Firefighters Activity and the Recruitment and Retention of Volunteer
Firefighters Activity on the same application. Please note, however, that each department
or organization can submit only one application per application period. Applicants who
choose to apply for both the Hiring of Firefighters and the Recruitment and Retention of
Volunteer Firefighters activities will do so within one application. Such applications will
be scored in total against the established funding priorities and, if they continue on to the
peer review stage of application competition, will be again evaluated in their entirety and
funded accordingly, i.e., we will not make a partial award for one of the two activities. It
is not necessary to for the applicant to write two separate narratives, however, applicants
that are requesting assistance in both activities should be sure to address both activities
under each of the applicable narrative elements. For example, when composing the
narrative segment regarding how the community and current firefighters are at risk, make
sure you address this element from both the hiring perspective and the
recruitment/retention perspective.
Applications that best address the SAFER grant funding priorities will score
higher than those applications that are not directed toward the priorities. The applications
that score the highest will be determined to be in the "competitive range." A panel of at
least three technical evaluation specialists will further evaluate the applications that are in
the competitive range, i.e., the highest -ranked applications. These panelists will evaluate
the application using the narrative, along with the answers to the general questions and
the activity -specific questions. Each application will be judged on its own merits, not
compared to other applications.
When reviewing applications in the competitive range, the panelists will use the
Narrative Statement and all the information contained in the application to determine the
worthiness of the request for an award. The panelists will evaluate specific elements in
the narratives. The criteria are different for the two activities. The specific elements for
the activities are as follows%
11
Narrative Statement for Hiring of Firefighters Activity
The narrative statements for applications requesting assistance in hiring of
firefighters must include the following six elements. Each element will be evaluated
independently by the panelists:
• A statement that describes why the applicant needs the grant funds, i.e., how the
newly hired firefighters will be used within the department and a description of
the specific benefit these firefighters will provide for the fire department and
community.
• A statement regarding how the community and current firefighters are at risk
without the needed firefighters, and to what extent that risk will be reduced if the
applicant is awarded.
• An explanation of the applicant's inability to address the need without Federal
assistance.
• A statement relating to how the applicant will ensure, to the extent possible, that
they will seek, recruit, and hire members of racial and ethnic minority groups and
women to increase their ranks within their department.
• A statement regarding how the applicant plans to meet the match requirements for
the five-year performance period should they receive the grant award. This
statement should include any long-term plans to retain the new firefighter
positions.
• A statement regarding how the applicant plans to meet the requirement to ensure
that firefighter positions filled under the SAFER grants are not discriminated
against for, or prohibited from, engaging in volunteer activities in another
jurisdiction during off -duty hours.
Note: These elements carry equal weight when factored into the panelists' scores.
Narrative Statement for Recruitment and Retention of Volunteer Firefighters
Activi
The narrative statements for applications requesting assistance in the recruitment
and retention of volunteer firelighters must include the following four elements. Each
element will be evaluated independently by the panelists:
• A statement that describes why the applicant needs the grant funds, i.e., how the
recruitment of new volunteer firefighters and retention of current volunteer
firefighters will be used within the department or organization and a description
of the specific benefit these firefighters will provide for the fire department(s) or
community. This statement should include specifics about the recruitment and/or
retention plan and what specific benefit the efforts would provide the surrounding
community or communities.
• A statement regarding how the community and current firefighters (or geographic
area of concern for an eligible organization) are at risk without the needed
12
firefighters, and to what extent that risk will be reduced if the applicant is
awarded.
• An explanation of the applicant's inability to address the need without Federal
assistance.
• A statement relating to how the applicant will ensure, to the extent possible, that
they will seek, recruit, and retain members of racial and ethnic minority groups
and women to increase the ranks within their fire department.
Note: These elements carry equal weight when factored into the panelists' scores.
SAFER Grants ActiviG:y F�°fl®�•ities
As stated in the overview above, there are two activities in which applicants may
request funding under the SAFER grants: (1) hiring of new firefighters and (2)
recruitment and retention of volunteer firefighters. Volunteer and combination fire
departments are eligible to apply for both the Hiring of Firefighters Activity and the
Recruitment and Retention of Volunteer Firefighters Activity on the same application.
Career fire departments may apply for funding only in the Hiring of Firefighters Activity.
Organizations that support volunteerism or otherwise have an interest in volunteer
firefighters may apply only for Recruitment and Retention of Volunteer Firefighters
Activity.
Keep in mind that we will use your answers to the activity -specific questions for
our initial assessment. The answers to these questions are the primary basis that we use
to determine whether your application warrants further evaluation. Applicants whose
answers indicate that their activity is consistent with our established priorities (as outlined
below) will have a better chance of reaching the competitive range and the second level
of review than those applicants whose activities do not reflect the established priorities.
Applicants who falsify their application or misrepresent their department or organization
in any material manner will have their application deemed ineligible by the AFG program
office and referred for further action as appropriate.
The priorities of the SAFER grants activities are as follows:
Hiring of Firefiehters Activity
Goal
The goal of the Hiring of Firefighters Activity is to award grants directly to
volunteer, combination, and career fire departments to help the departments increase the
number of frontline firefighters. Ultimately, the goal of SAFER grants is to enhance the
ability of grantees to attain and maintain 24-hour staffing and to assure that their
communities have adequate protection from fire and fire -related hazards.

Volunteer, combination and career fire departments are eligible to apply for the
Hiring of Firefighters Activity. Municipalities and fire districts may submit applications
on behalf of fire departments when the fire departments lack the legal status to do so, e.g.,
when the fire department falls within the auspices of the municipality or district. Each
eligible applicant is limited to one application per application period.
Federal fire departments and fire departments under contract to the Federal
government whose sole responsibility is the suppression of fires on Federal installations
or lands are not eligible for the SAFER Hiring of Firefighters Activity. Local and
statewide organizations that represent the interests of volunteer firefighters are not
eligible. For -profit fire departments and organizations, i.e., those that do not have
specific nonprofit status or are not municipally -based, are not eligible. Fire stations that
are not independent, or are part of, controlled by, or under the day-to-day operational
direction of a larger fire department or agency, are not eligible. Also not eligible are
ambulance services, rescue squads, auxiliaries, dive teams, urban search and rescue
teams; and State and local agencies, such as a forest service, fire marshals, hospitals, and
training offices. Non -Federal airport and/or port authority fire departments whose sole
responsibility is suppression of fires on the airport grounds or port facilities are not
eligible unless the airport/port fire department has a formally recognized arrangement
with the local jurisdiction to provide fire suppression on a first -due basis outside the
confines of the airport or port facilities.
Only full-time positions will be funded. We recognize that many deparhnents
have shifts that exceed a 40-hour workweek; however, we consider full-time positions to
be those that are funded for at least 2,080 hours per year (i.e., 40 hours per week, 52
weeks per year.) The AFG office will also consider funding the job -sharing of a full-time
position with sufficient justification. A job -share position is a full-time position that is
occupied by more than one person. Example: A department may hire two part-time staff
persons at 28 hours each to fulfill the scheduled work hours of one 56-hour shift position.
Part-time positions will not be funded unless they are combined to equal a full-time
position.
A recruitment period of ninety (90) days will be provided for all grantees under
the Hiring of Firefighters Activity. The five-year period of performance will start after
this recruitment period. The award documents will provide specifics on the period of
performance. The period of performance will commence whether or not the grantee has
filled the new firefighter positions. If an awardee fills their awarded firefighter positions
during the 90-day recruiting period, they will be afforded credit toward the final 12
months of the grant performance period, when the grantee must fund the entire salary.
Costs that may be claimed are the actual payroll expenses incurred net of any
employment gaps. No extensions of the grant performance period will be considered.
Awardees will draw the Federal share of the awarded amount on a reimbursement basis
no more frequently than quarterly, i.e., grant funds will reimburse the grantee for actual
salary expenses incurred in the previous quarter.
14
Be advised that recipients of grants in the Hiring of Firefighters Activity must
commit to a five-year period of performance during which the Federal contribution
toward the costs of the salaries will diminish over the course of the performance period.
For the 2006 program year, the Federal share of salaries and associated benefits is limited
to a total of $103,500 per position over the course of the performance period (this figure
is adjusted for inflation for 2005 at a rate of 3.5%). There is no funding limit for any
application or any limit to the number of positions eligible for funding per application.
However, applicants requesting large numbers of firefighters must make a strong case for
their request. To maintain continued involvement, we will also limit the Federal share in
each of the years of the grant. Based on a total funding cap of $103,500 over five years,
the allocated amount of Federal funds that grantees should budget for under SAFER for
salary and benefits for newly hired firefighters will not exceed the lesser of the following:
Year One: 90 percent of the actual costs or $37,260
Year Two: 80 percent of the actual costs or $33,120
Year Three: 50 percent of the actual costs or $20,700
Year Four: 30 percent of the actual costs or $12,420
Year Five: No Federal share -m all costs funded by grantee
Funding Priorities
The industry minimum standards to be addressed include NFPA 1710 (Section
5.2.4.2 — Initial Full Alarm Assignment Capability), which primarily applies to all -career
fire departments and at the combination department's election, and NFPA 1720 (Section
4.3 — Staffing and Deployment), which primarily applies to all -volunteer fire departments
and combination departments that do not elect to comply with NFPA 1710.
The highest priority under the Hiring of Firefighters Activity would be to provide
funding to departments who are not in compliance with the previously identified sections
of NFPA 1710 or 1720 and who will come into compliance with the standards in the most
economical manner. Applicants that will achieve the greatest percentage increase in
compliance with the identified sections of NFPA 1710 or 1720 will receive greater
consideration than applicants who are closer to compliance.
Applicants whose newly hired firefighters will be certified at the Firefighter I
level (NFPA 1001) within the first six months of employment AND who will have the
new recruits trained to Firefighter II level (or equivalent) within the first two years of the
grant period, will be afforded higher consideration than applicants who will not be able to
achieve these results. Applicants who will have trained their new recruits to have EMS
certification to the minimum level established by the local fire department will also
receive higher consideration.
Department call volume will be factored into the initial evaluation. Departments
that respond to a high number of incidents will receiver higher consideration than
departments from similar communities (urban, suburban, and rural) that respond to few
1S
incidents. It is the recommendation of the criteria development panel that the health and
well-being of firefighters is of paramount importance, as such, applicants who indicate
that their newly recruited firefighters will undergo an entry-level physical and receive
immunizations will receive higher consideration than applications where these benefits
will not be provided.
The criteria development panel has recommended and we have agreed that, for
the purposes of the SAFER grants, a safe and efficient initial attack requires a minimum
of four firefighters. Therefore, applicants who will come into compliance with the
minimum four firefighter standard for the first arriving engine (or vehicle capable of
initiating suppression activities) with the fewest number additional personnel will receive
higher consideration than applicants seeking a higher number of additional personnel. It
is believed that a benefit will be derived by awarding grants for the hiring of firefighters
to fire departments that have automatic mutual aid agreements. Additionally, higher
consideration will be given to those applicants whose request is based on a staffing needs
assessment.
The only eligible costs under the Hiring of Firefighters Activity are the salary and
associated benefits for the new firefighter positions. Overtime costs, including costs in
which fire departments routinely pay overtime as a part of the base salary to comply with
the Fair Labor Standards Act (FLSA) requirements, are not eligible. Administrative Iand
indirect costs associated with hiring of the firefighters are not eligible. Costs of training
and equipping firefighters are not eligible. However, we will pay the salaries and
benefits of firefighters hired under the SAFER grants while they are engaged in training.
Casts for uniforms and physicals are not eligible. Also, along with the authorizing
legislation, funds to support the new additional hired positions shall not be used to
supplant normal operating budgets or funds received by Federal, State, or local sources
for these purposes.
Note: No changes in scope will be considered. Once submitted, you may NOT
reduce the number of positions requested in your application nor change or modify the
grant's period of performance. Failure to fully fund awarded positions will be considered
as defaulting on the grant agreement, and may require the return of all or a portion of the
Federal funds disbursed under the grant.
Recruitment and Retention of Firefuhters Activity
Goal
The goal of this activity is to create a net increase in the number of trained,
certified, and competent firefighters capable of safely responding to emergencies likely to
occur within the fire department geographic response area. The primary focus of this
activity is the recruitment and retention of volunteer firefighters who are involved with,
or trained in, the operations of firefighting and emergency response. There is no local
matching requirement for this activity. However, applicants should demonstrate that the
16
Federal funds expended under this activity will achieve significant benefits for their
organization and community.
Eligibility
Eligibility for this activity is limited to volunteer, paid -on -call, and combination
fire departments (see "SAFER Grants Definitions"). Statewide or local organizations that
represent the interest of volunteer firefighters and individual fire departments (volunteer
or combination) may apply for assistance for regional projects. Individual fire
departments may act as a "host applicant" and apply for regional projects on behalf of
itself and any number of neighboring fire departments, for example, a host applicant
could apply for a regional media campaign promoting volunteerism. The applicant must
include in the narrative section of the application a list of participating third -party
organizations that will benefit from the regional project if the project is approved. The
third -party organizations that will benefit from the recruitment and retention project may
also apply for funding under the SAFER, as long as the third -party organizations do not
apply for a project that could conflict with, or duplicate, the host applicant's project. The
host applicant may NOT apply for other needs beyond the regional project.
Career fire departments are not eligible to receive assistance under the
Recruitment and Retention Activity. Federal fire departments and fire departments under
contract to the Federal government whose sole responsibility is the suppression of fires
on Federal installations or lands are not eligible. Also not eligible are for -profit fire
departments and organizations (i.e., do not have specific nonprofit status or are not
municipally based); fire stations that are not independent, or are part of, controlled by, or
under the day-to-day operational direction of a larger fire department or agency;
ambulance services, rescue squads, auxiliaries, dive teams, urban search and rescue
teams; and State and local agencies, such as a forest service, fire marshals, hospitals, and
training offices. Non -Federal airport and/or port authority fire departments whose sole
responsibility is suppression of fires on the airport grounds or port facilities are not
eligible unless the airport/port fire department has a formally recognized arrangement
with the local jurisdiction to provide fire suppression on a first -due basis outside the
confines of the airport or port facilities.
A recruitment period of ninety (90) days will be provided for all grantees under
the Recruitment and Retention of Firefighters Activity. The specifics regarding the
period of performance will be detailed in the award documents. Payment requests will be
submitted quarterly on a reimbursable basis, i.e., grantees may request reimbursement of
first-quarter expenses incurred during the second quarter of the performance period.
Funding Priorities
The highest priority is to assist departments that have been experiencing a high
rate of turnover and departments whose staffing levels are significantly below the ideal
staffing level required to comply with NFPA 1710 or 1720. As such, we will strive to
17
fund departments with the lowest retention rate and departments with the highest vacancy
rates.
we concur with the recommendation of the criteria development panel that
departments with the highest percentage of volunteers and departments or organizations
with large numbers of volunteers will benefit the most from the recruitment and retention
of volunteer firefighters. Therefore, applicants whose membership is substantially
volunteer, or departments with a significant number of volunteer firefighters, will receive
higher consideration than departments with a low percentage of volunteers or smaller
number of volunteer members.
Further, it is critical to have a recruitment and/or retention plan. Accordingly,
applications requesting funding for recruitment and/or retention programs that are based
on a formal plan will receive higher consideration than applications that are not.
Applicants that claim to have a recruitment and retention plan should be prepared to
summarize the plan in their narrative. A designated project coordinator and a marketing
pIan are necessary for the successful implementation of any recruitment and/or retention
program. Therefore, requests that include a coordinator's position and a marketing plan
will receive higher consideration than requests that do not. In accordance with the
recommendations of the criteria development panel, we will also give a higher
competitive ranking to applications where the recruitment and/or retention plans include
accident and/or injury insurance and lost wages for members.
Department call volume will be factored into the initial evaluation. Departments
that respond to a high number of incidents will receive higher consideration than
departments from similar communities (urban, suburban, and rural) that respond to few
incidents.
It is the recommendation of the criteria development panel that the health and
well-being of firefighters is of paramount importance. As such, applicants who indicate
that their newly recruited firefighters will undergo an entry-level physical and receive
immunizations will receive higher consideration than applications where these benefits
will not be provided. Applicants who indicate that newly recruited firefighters will meet
the minimum fire and EMS certification requirements prescribed by the locality or State
within twelve months of appointment to the department will receive additional
consideration.
Finally, requests for recruitment and/or retention activities that have a regional
impact will receive a higher competitive advantage than applications that will benefit
only the applicant.
Applicants who propose to initiate both a recruitment and retention plan as a part
of their application will receive equal consideration for the recruitment activities and the
retention activities. Proposals in this activity may include providing incentives for
volunteer firefighter members to continue their service in a fire department. Examples of
the type of initiatives that may receive assistance include, but are not limited to, the
following.
• Accidental death and dismemberment insurance
• Compensation for lost wages when attending required training
• Marketing costs to recruit new volunteer members
• Staffing needs assessment
• Entry-level and/or periodic physicals and immunizations
• Tuition assistance for higher education and professional certifications
• Length of service awards and other retirement benefits
Be advised that with proper justification, applications for assistance in the
Recruitment and Retention of Volunteer Firefighters could include activities that would
require as many as four years to complete. There is no local match requirement for this
activity and there are no maximum Federal share limits.
Fundint Limitations
Awards will be made on a competitive basis using rank order as the primary basis
of our decision, regardless of the type of SAFER grants being awarded. But, there are
some exceptions to this process. The law requires that we set aside ten percent of the
available funding for hiring firefighters for volunteer and mostly volunteer fire
departments. For the purpose of fulfilling this regulatory requirement, we will consider a
department to be mostly volunteer if more than 50 percent of their membership is made
up of personnel who do not receive financial compensation for their services, other than
life and health insurance, worker's compensation, or a stipend payment such as paid -on -
call. In order to satisfy this regulatory requirement, it may be necessary to go out of rank
order to select a sufficient number of applicants in order to meet the ten percent set -aside.
We are also required to direct at least ten percent of the total amount of available
funds for the recruitment and retention of volunteer firefighters. If less than ten percent
of the available funds are awarded to volunteer and mostly volunteer fire departments, the
remaining funds must be transferred to the component of SAFER that provides grants for
the recruitment and retention of volunteer firefighters.
Regardless of the merit of an application, applicants are reminded that grants may
not be awarded to a municipality or other recipient whose annual budget has been
reduced below 80 percent of the average annual funding in the three years prior to the
date of application.
Reasonableness of Requests
Peer review panelists will review all of the applications deemed to be in the
competitive range and judge each application on its own. merits. The panelists will
consider all expenses budgeted as part of the cost -benefit determination and may
recommend appropriate adjustments. Regardless of the eligibility of any costs requested,
19
the AFG program office reserves the right to reduce any requests for assistance, in whole
or in part, that it deems to be excessive or otherwise contrary to the best interests of the
program.
Award Procedure
Once the peer review panel has reviewed every application in the "competitive
range," the applications are ranked according to the scores awarded by the panel. The
ranking will be summarized in a Technical Report prepared by the AFG program office.
At that point, the AFG program office staff will make award recommendations to the
Grants Management Specialists in DHS. The Grants Management Specialists will then
contact the applicant to discuss and/or negotiate the content of the application before
making the final award decision.
We will select a sufficient number of awardees from this one application period to
obligate all of the funding available this year. Awards will be announced on a weekly
basis until funding is exhausted. Awards will not be made in any specified order, i.e., not
by State, grant activity or type, or any other characteristic.
Grantee l�es�®nsibilities
Grant recipients (grantees) must agree to the following:
l . Perform the tasks (scope of work) outlined in the grantee's application and
approved by the AFG program office in accordance with the articles of agreement
within the period of performance.
2. Share in the costs if awarded under the hiring of firefighters. The grantee's
POI ion of the salary and benefit costs for hiring firefighters under this grant must
be equal to at least the following:
i. 10 percent of the actual costs in year one
ii. 20 percent of the actual costs in year two
iii. 50 percent of the actual costs in year three
iv. 70 percent of the actual costs in year four
v. 100 percent of the actual costs in year five
All cost -share contributions must be cash. No "in -kind" contributions will be
considered for the statutorily required cost -share. No waivers of this requirement
will be granted except for fire departments of Insular Areas as provided for in 48
U.S.C. 1469a. Regardless of the potential for fire departments in Insular Areas to
obtain a waiver of the cost -share requirements, the $103,500 Federal limit will
remain in effect. Grantees that do not fulfill their obligations under these grants
will be considered in default and required to return the Federal funds disbursed
under the grant award.
20
3. The SAFER grants are intended to supplement grantees' staffing NOT supplant
grantees' staffing. If awarded under the Hiring of Firefighters Activity, grantees
must retain a level of staffing that is equal to the level of staffing at the time of
application, in addition to the staffing of the SAFER funded positions. Grantees
that fail to maintain this level of staffing risk losing the Federal funds awarded
under this grant.
4. Maintain operating expenditures for the period of the grant in the areas funded by
this grant at a level equal to or greater than the average of their operating
expenditures in the two years preceding the year in which this assistance is
received. These grants are meant to supplement rather than replace an
organization's funding.
5. Retain grant files and supporting documentation for three years after the
conclusion and closeout of the grant. The AFG program office may require
access to any pertinent books, documents, papers, or records that belong to a grant
recipient. The Office of Inspector General or the Comptroller General of the
United States may also require access to a grantee's books and records.
6. Provide periodic performance reports in conjunction with the quarterly payment
requests to the AFG program office. In the fifth and final grant year for grants
involving the hiring of firefighters, grantees will have to submit a performance
report at the mid -point of the year and then at grant closeout. All grantees will be
required to produce a final report on how the grant funding was used and the
benefits realized from the award. An accounting of the grant funds must also be
included in the performance reports.
7. Follow the audit requirements of OMB Circular A-133, Audits of States, Local
Governments, and Nonprofit Organizations, which calls for grantees who expend
$500,000 or more in Federal funds in a year (from all Federal sources), to have a
single audit performed in accordance with the Circular. (For more information
about the Circulars, go to www.whitehouse.gov/omb/circulars.)
8. Not withstanding any provision of other laws, firefighters hired under these grants
shall not be discriminated against for, or be prohibited from, engaging in
volunteer activities in another jurisdiction during off -duty hours.
9. Homeland Security Presidential Directive-5 requires that, beginning October 1,
2005, all recipients of Federal preparedness funds (including recipients of Federal
grants and contracts) adopt the National Incident Management System (NIMS) as
a condition for the receipt of the Federal funds. Recipients of FY2006 SAFER
grants will be considered to be in compliance with the NIMS requirement if the
grantee (1) has an operational knowledge of the Incident Command System (ICS),
(2) has an understanding of NIMS' principles and policies, and (3) agrees to adopt
and/or comply with all directives, ordinances, rules, orders, edicts, etc., passed
down by the local or State authorities with respect to incident management.
i
21
Responders who have already been trained in ICS do not need retraining if their
previous training is consistent with DHS standards. In order for us to document
compliance, grantees will be required to certify to their compliance with the
NIMS/ICS requirements as part of their grant closeout process.
10. Grantees, to the extent possible, will seek, recruit, and appoint members of racial
and ethnic minority groups and women to increase their ranks within the
applicant's department.
11. Failure to fulfill the recipient's responsibilities may result in requiring the
recipient to return a portion, or all, of the grant funding as per section 24 (15 USC
2229a).
Excess Funds
Occasionally, due to successful competitive bid processes, breaks on service etc.,
some grantees have funds remaining after the completion of their obligations outlined
above. Grantees awarded under the Hiring of Firefighters Activity that complete the
approved scope of work and still have grant funds available, must return all excess funds
to the AFG program office. Grantees awarded under the Recruitment and Retention of
Volunteer Firefighters that have completed the approved scope of work and still have
grant funds available may use the excess funds to continue with recruitment or retention
activities consistent with the original scope of work, as long as it is within the originally
approved period of performance. There will be no extensions to any SAFER grants.

Subject: Moving Budget Monies
As you will recall, this budget year there were almost no raises given.
Attached you will find a list of department budgets for salaries. By moving

increase and still save approximately $ 40,000.

SANGER PUBLIC LIBRARY
MONTHLY REPORT
FEBRUARY 2007
Submitted by Victoria Elieson
HIGHLIGHTS:
While the library was closed for Presidents' Day, two new computers were
installed. They were funded by this year's Loan Star grant from the state.
ADMINIS"TRATION:
Submitted the annual report to the Texas State Library.
Submitted the activity report for the Loan Star grant.
Meetings attended:
"Bridge the Future" workshop (a Gates Foundation workshop on
technology planning), 2/8, Decatur
Library Board, 2/12
Denton County Library Advisory Board, 2/15, Coppell
SPECIAL PROJECTS:
The motor of one of the library's air conditioner/heat pumps burned out. It was
possible to replace it. Some time in the future when the whole unit needs to be replaced,
the ceiling is going to have to be torn out. This suggests that a mechanical room would
be a good thing to plan in the library's future expansion.
As the technician was here to replace the heat pump motor, he confirmed that the
library's refrigerator could not be turned off for defrosting. But he helped unplug the unit
so that it could be defrosted.
The power supply on an older computer was replaced.
PROGRAMS:
Sixteen adults and five young people attended "Beginner's Crochet" on a
Saturday afternoon. This popular program will be repeated twice a month through the
spring.
The Storytime theme was "Feelings". At the "Happy/Sad" program kids sang
both "If You're Happy and You Know It" and "If You're Sad and You Know It" They
thought that the verse about being sad was much funnier that the one about being happy.
Making valentines was the highlight of the "Angry/Loving" program. At the
"Brave/Afraid" program, the children met a monster who was afraid of butterflies. For
the last program, "Proud/Sorry" each child took home a life-size silhouette of himself.
