Vashon Awarded $16K for Disaster Emergency Response Trailer

Apr 4

Vashon_DERT At today’s Region 6 Homeland Security Council’s EMACS meeting, approximately $16K of unused funds from the FFY2009(or 2008?) Homeland Security Grant Program previously designated for Disaster Emergency Response Trailers (DERT) in King County, was re-allocated for Vashon! The trailer will primarily be used to store ADA compliant cots, blankets and pillows for use in community shelters to be set up for off-island visitors and workers unable to get home, or for residents with damaged houses.

Don Price (King County), Sarah Miller (Auburn), Jill Watson (Seattle) have been working with Catherine Rogers, Fire Chief Hank Lipe and myself since last summer for formal application for such a DERT from the 2011 grant cycle, but this additional allocation came as a very pleasant surprise. Cathy will be serving as project lead on purchasing and implementing procedures for its use.
