City Of Hartford

The City of Hartford is a local government entity located in Iowa, registered in the System for Award Management (SAM.gov) with a current registration valid through January 17, 2026. As a U.S. local government, the city primarily focuses on municipal services and infrastructure development, with a significant emphasis on emergency response and public safety capabilities. While not holding any federal contract vehicles, Hartford has been successful in securing federal grant awards, particularly from the Federal Emergency Management Agency (FEMA).

In recent federal grant history, the City of Hartford has been the recipient of two Assistance to Firefighters Grants (AFG) totaling $431,500, awarded in August and July 2024. These grants are specifically targeted at enhancing fire and emergency response infrastructure, supporting critical investments in personal protective equipment, fire station facility upgrades, emergency response vehicles, and specialized training programs for firefighters. Additionally, the city has engaged in sub-grant work, notably a wastewater plant improvements project in collaboration with the Economic Development Authority of Iowa, completed in December 2021. The FEMA grants, each with a 24-month performance period, demonstrate Hartford's commitment to improving public safety infrastructure and supporting first responders through targeted federal funding mechanisms. The grants enable the city to address critical needs in emergency services, ultimately improving community resilience and firefighter safety through strategic equipment procurement and professional development initiatives.
