DUBUQUE, Iowa — The fire department was awarded a 2010 Dubuque Racing Association grant that allowed for the purchase of four portable and one vehicle emergency radios.

The $4,166 radio project was fully funded by the Dubuque Racing Association. To date the DRA has awarded more than $44,000 to the fire department.
