Description of original award (Fiscal Year 2024, $28,938)
This application seeks funding to acquire essential equipment for the City of Huntington Park Police Department, specifically for the procurement of 60 gas masks, each equipped with advanced filter canisters, to replace outdated units that have surpassed their service life. The acquisition of these gas masks is critical for enhancing officer safety and operational readiness, particularly in hazardous environments where chemical, biological, or other airborne threats are present. By equipping law enforcement personnel with reliable, up-to-date protective gear, this initiative will reduce the risk of injury or fatality during high-risk incidents and ensure that officers can effectively serve and protect the community. Federal support for this request will allow the City of Huntington Park to maintain its commitment to public safety and emergency preparedness at the highest level.
