The action allows Shaker Heights to seek federal funding for equipment used to clean firefighters’ protective gear after major incidents. The city would provide a 10% match if awarded the grant. Staff will return to Council for approval to accept and appropriate the funds if the grant is approved. Council also reviewed a proposed Backyard Bulk Pickup program planned for this fall, but the minutes do not record a final decision on that program.
