Summary
Description of Topic: (who, what, where, when, why and how much)
The Foley Fire Department is requesting approval to proceed with Phase II of a capital project as planned in the FY2020 budget. The project will add a traffic signal preemption system to 4 intersections and 1 fire pumper. The planned intersections are Hwy 59/Riviera, Hwy 59/Tanger, Hwy 59/Fern, Hwy 98/FBE.

The requested amount for equipment and installation costs to complete this phase of the project is $16,133.
