PUBLIC SAFETY Centennial Fire District The Centennial Fire District received a Volunteer Fire Assistance grant for 2023. The grant will be used to replace the MSA Altair 4 gas monitors. The grant will be awarded in August, and because the devices are readily available, they will be in service in just a few days. The Volunteer Fire Assistance grant is only available to departments who serve cities under 10,000 residents and departments who are comprised of paid-on-call or volunteer members. Congratulations on receiving this award!
