The bill would create a state grant program for volunteer and municipal ambulance services. Eligible projects could include acquiring, maintaining, improving, renovating, rehabilitating, or consolidating buildings and vehicles, as well as acquiring or maintaining equipment and technology. Grants would be awarded competitively, subject to available funding. No eligible entity could receive more than 10% of the funding available in a grant cycle.
Volunteer and municipal ambulance services could apply for grants. Two or more eligible services could apply together for a shared project. A municipality or county could also apply on a service’s behalf if it meets department requirements. The department would publish information about each grant cycle and report on applications, awards, and funding.
The program would depend on appropriations. The bill does not specify a funding amount or grant size.
