MANOR, Texas - The Travis County Emergency Services District No.12 (ESD12) was recently named as a recipient of the Staffing for Adequate Fire & Emergency Response (SAFER) Grant awarded for Fiscal Year 2018 from the Department of Homeland Security’s Federal Emergency Management Agency (FEMA).
The SAFER Grant was created to provide funding directly to career fire departments and volunteer firefighter organizations to help increase or maintain the number of trained, “front line” firefighters available in their communities. The goal of the SAFER grant is to enhance the local fire departments’ abilities to comply with staffing, response and operational standards established by the National Fire Protection Association (NFPA 1710 or 1720).
Travis County ESD No.12 was selected from thousands of great applicants to be one of only 300 SAFER Grant recipients from across the United States and one of just over a dozen awarded in Texas.  ESD12, which serves 95 square miles of East Travis County, has identified the need to increase staffing for a third Engine and Rescue Squad, full-time, to continue to provide the best response and protection to our residents and businesses.  “We are extremely excited and very humbled by the government’s support of our community, that we have been selected to receive this highly competitive grant and for the opportunity that it brings to the district and its citizens.  As the growth over the last five years has dramatically increased, including the growth within the City of Manor, it is crucial that the Department has the resources it needs to ensure the safety of our community,” says ESD12’s Fire Chief Ryan Smith.
This award gives ESD12 the ability to improve on lowering its ISO/PPC (Insurance Service Office/Public Protection Class) Class 3 rating, which helps property owners save on costly insurance premiums.  
“To further comply with response and safety standards, staffing a new Engine at Fire Station 1203, located at 11200 Gregg Ln, and a new Rescue Squad as the second unit at Fire Station 1201, located at 405 W Parsons St, would require 15 additional firefighters,” explains Chief Smith.  “Our firefighters have been doing an outstanding job with the available funding, so the additional funds provided by this award and the new positions created will help make firefighter safety and service to the community even more efficient,” said Chief Smith.
On September 25th, 2019, the ESD No.12 Board of Commissioners unanimously approved the ESD12 Administration to hire the 15 new positions. The $1.608 million grant represents a federal cost-share of the total projected cost of $2.607 million over three years [75/75/35]. The remaining funds will come from non-federal sources, all of which will be used for the hiring of the 15 new Firefighters the district needs to staff the additional units.
“This SAFER grant is the result of Chief Smith’s and the Department’s Administration’s hard work and determination. The Fire Department is adapting, to respond and provide the best and safest service while addressing challenging, and changing community needs here in our district. This is not an easy grant to get and we are excited about this opportunity. Moving forward, we’ll continue working to ensure that fire services are provided in a cost-effective and sustainable manner,” states Board President, Jesse Arellano.
