TURLOCK, Calif. — The Turlock Fire Department could hire three more firefighters if approved for a federal grant.
Turlock’s City Council gave the OK to Turlock Fire Chief Tim Lohman to apply for a grant that could fund three positions for two years. The Staffing of Adequate Fire and Emergency Response Grant could bring in about $589,685 to the city.
Some 2,500 fire departments are expected to apply for the Federal Emergency Management Agency grant, and about 300 will be selected to receive the funding.
