A 3521 New York Assembly · 2025 Regular Session

Creates a volunteer firefighter training fund; appropriation

This bill creates a dedicated "volunteer firefighter training fund" in the state finance law and appropriates $1 million from the general fund to support it. The fund provides reimbursement to municipal fire departments for training costs incurred by volunteer firefighters. Fire departments can apply for these funds through the chief officer, with payments made via the state comptroller after legislative appropriation. The bill directly affects volunteer fire departments across New York municipalities by providing state funding for their training programs.
