General Topology, chapter I, § 9. Compact spaces and locally compact spaces

Let XX be a locally compact paracompact space. Then every open covering R\mathfrak{R} of XX has a locally finite open refinement R′\mathfrak{R}' formed of relatively compact sets. If XX is σ\sigma-compact then R′\mathfrak{R}' can be taken to be countable.

Bourbaki puts the proof directly after the statement, so what is above is the statement and its proof together.
