DEADLINE IS:  5:00pm EST, November 29, 2024

Our goal is to make sure every department throughout the Commonwealth has at least one camera within their department.  Grants will be awarded based on a date stamp return of the application, current number of cameras within your department, and review by the Grants Committee.  

If awarded a grant for a thermal imaging camera, your department will be responsible for purchasing the camera and submitting proof of purchase documents prior to reimbursement. Award recipients may be reimbursed up to $3250.00. 

KRS 95A.440 requires a two-year non-eligibility period.  If your department was awarded this grant in the past two fiscal years you ARE NOT eligible to apply at this time.
