A RESOLUTION AUTHORIZING HUDSON FIRE TO PURCHASE A FOTOKITE TETHERED OPERATION, FULLY AUTONOMOUS, PILOTLESS DRONE FROM ATLANTIC EMERGENCY SOLUTIONS; AND DECLARING AN EMERGENCY. Brief Description: Hudson Fire has been evaluating uses for operational drones for almost two years. We have had numerous sales demonstrations and seen various drone options. We have determined that the best option available for our purposes is a tethered, autonomous, pilotless, continuous use drone with a combination live visual optic and thermal imaging platform.
