Board appoints EMS financing work group and holds a moment of silence for county volunteer David Crawford

Before adjourning the Aug. 13, 2025 meeting, the board chair announced appointments to a finance work group charged with reviewing emergency medical services (EMS) financing. Appointees named at the meeting were Rob Begonia, Richard Wolf, Michael Chaney, Jim Nuzzi, Tim Wounds, Brenda Adams, P.J. Keeler and the chair (who said he would serve); each supervisor represents or was chosen to represent a rescue squad area except for the two county officials named.

The chair said the work group will look at EMS financing moving forward. No formal motion text or vote on the appointments is contained in the provided transcript beyond the chair's announcement. The chair also asked the board to observe a moment of silence for David Crawford, a long-time county volunteer and member of the county economic development board who recently died; the board observed the moment and then adjourned.

Reporters seeking the work group's charge, meeting schedule, or any formal vote on appointments should consult the clerk's office and the minutes for any written motion or resolution.
