Seeing that the East Contra Costa Fire Protection District (ECCFPD) had a mobile fire unit training tower high on its list of needs, Assemblymember Jim Frazier (D-Discovery Bay) was able to acquire $500,000 in the budget process to help pay for the centerpiece of ECCFPD’s training regimen. Governor Newsom signed SB 109 by the Senate Committee on Budget and Fiscal Review, a bill that makes technical amendments to the Budget Act of 2019 including additional funds for the ECCFPD.
“Nothing is more important than continuing training assistance for our firefighter personnel, especially in this age of devastating fires,” said Assemblymember Frazier.
On Friday, Assemblyman Jim Frazier presented the East Contra Costa Fire Protection District with $500k in additional funding from the State Legislator.
