Introduced by: Edward L. Schrock | all patrons ... notes | add to my profiles
SUMMARY:
Virginia Fire Services Board; Fire Program Funds; creation of Fire Services Grant Fund program. Designates the existing Fire Programs Fund as a special nonreverting fund established on the books of the Comptroller and capable of earning and retaining interest. The bill establishes reporting requirements that are mandatory in order for localities to retain eligibility for the Fire Programs Fund. The Fire Services Grant Fund program is created to provide regional fire services training facilities, finance the Virginia Fire Incident Reporting System, and build or repair burn buildings (i.e., those intentionally set on fire for training purposes) as determined by the Virginia Fire Services Board. The Fire Services Grant Fund program will be funded with $1,000,000 from the annual assessments made against all licensed insurance companies writing fire insurance in the Commonwealth. This bill also directs that an additional $100,000 from these annual assessments be distributed annually for continuing the Dry Fire Hydrant Grant Program.
