The City of Humboldt was recently awarded a Lean on LARM Safety Grant to purchase and install a handrail at the entrance of the City Fire Hall.

Darla Hulsebus, Humboldt City Clerk/Treasurer, applied for the grant.

"Installing this handicap rail will improve public safety by reducing the risk of slips, trips, and falls in this high-traffic area. The added support will help individuals safely navigate the step, especially during adverse weather conditions such as rain, snow, or ice, when surfaces may become slippery," Hulsebus said.

The League Association of Risk Management (LARM) offers the grant to its members to purchase safety items for their communities.
