Program details

How it works

The official page says eligible municipal fire departments can apply for grants through the Commonwealth.

What the money covers

Eligible expense categories listed on the page are:

  • Establishing or modernizing facilities that house firefighting equipment, ambulances, or rescue vehicles
  • Acquiring or renovating existing structures to house firefighting equipment, ambulances, or rescue vehicles
  • Constructing or modernizing facilities
  • Repairing or purchasing firefighting, ambulance, or rescue equipment to provide proper and adequate training

Amounts and timing

The page says eligible departments can apply for $25,000 to $100,000. It also says the application window for the 2026 cycle runs from April 15, 2026 through May 29, 2026 at 4:00 p.m.

What homeowners should know

This is a local government fire department capital grant, not a homeowner subsidy. I’m including it only because it is a statewide program connected to emergency response capacity.
