By Tiffany Collins
City of Columbia

Columbia has been awarded a $1,486.00 grant for training and safety supplies by the Kentucky League of Cities Insurance Services (KLCIS).

"We use every opportunity to make our city safer," said Mayor Pamela Hoots referring to the grant. Mayor Hoots said that in these uncertain times, grants such as this one are a practical way to make our budget go further, as well as provide supplies and training that will enhance public safety.

KLC Insurance Services helps members increase public safety with a number of proactive programs and services.



Kentucky League of Cities Insurance Services has awarded in excess of $4.6 million since the Safety Grant Program started in 1999. The awarded funds will go toward Personal Protective Equipment, reimbursement for attending the KLCIS Risk and Safety Conference, Ice and Snow traction devices for footwear, Safety Training, Confined Space Equipment, Trenching and Shoring Safety Equipment, Work Zone Safety Equipment, Utility Safety Manuals, and COVID-19 related expenses.

"Our philosophy is to prevent injuries and claims from happening," said J.D. Chaney, Executive Director/CEO. "We want to partner with our members, and this safety grant promotes good risk management. There is no better way to invest our member's money."

KLC provides safety grants to its members annually. As Kentucky's largest municipal insurance program, KLC provides a full range of affordable liability, property, workers' compensation, and other products to municipalities. In addition, the Kentucky League of Cities offers employee benefits programs, legislative advocacy, financial services, training and education, municipal law services, community development services, and more.
