Yucaipa secures $1.58M grant for 6 firefighter positions

Yucaipa has secured nearly $1.58 million in federal funding to help pay for six firefighter positions over three years, giving the city additional support for emergency medical response while leaving a nearly $1 million local contribution during the grant period and the full annual cost after the funding expires. The council unanimously accepted the Federal Emergency Management Agency’s fiscal year 2025 Staffing for Adequate Fire and Emergency Response grant at its Oct. 26 meeting. The award provides $1,579,723.19 to support three firefighter-paramedics and three engineer-paramedics assigned to Medic Squad 553. The grant covers the period from March 24, 2027, through March 23, 2030. Over those three years, the six positions are projected to cost approximately $2.56 million, with the city responsible for about $981,990 under the approved funding plan. The federal contribution will decrease in the final year of the grant, requiring the city to cover a larger share of the cost as the funding period progresses.
