Ongoing funding for the maintenance of the State Fire Brigade School

The ongoing grant for the maintenance of the State Fire Brigade School in Salzburg annually supports the preservation and modernization of the training infrastructure. Funded from an advance deduction of the fire protection tax, the funding enables the Salzburg State Fire Brigade Association and its affiliated fire brigade units to implement necessary maintenance measures. The goal is to maintain a high standard of operational readiness and training quality at the State Fire Brigade School and to secure disaster protection in the federal state in the long term. The continuous provision of funds promotes sustainable investments in structural and technical facilities, thereby contributing to the efficient management of emergencies.
