Fredericksburg's VFD 25K LCRA grant

Fredericksburg’s VFD receives 25 thousand dollar grant from LCRA. The LCRA Community Development Partnership Program grant, along with $10,000 in matching funds from the VFD, will fund the community’s first rainwater collection site to be located at the city’s consolidated warehouse. Firetrucks can be filled with the non-potable water and also serve as a reserve for other emergency situations for use by the public works department. Firefighter Brandon Vollmar, says if power is lost across the whole town and well systems aren’t working, water would be available.
