Mahoning County approves contracts to outfit public-safety vehicles with guards and lights

County staff told commissioners the county has agreements with Hall Public Safety Company to outfit county vehicles with protective dividers and emergency lighting and that the work will be paid from non-general funds.

A staff member said agreement H would outfit two vans with window guards and protective dividers for $17,186.80, and agreement I would outfit three SUVs with emergency lights, sirens and protective dividers for $39,506.51. “H is an agreement with Hall Public Safety Company to outfit 2 vans with window guards and protective dividers in the amount of $17,186.80, non general. I is also an agreement with Hall Public Safety Company for outfitting 3 SUVs with emergency light sirens and protective dividers in the amount of $39,506.51, also non general,” the staff member said.

Both items were included in an omnibus motion covering multiple agenda items; the commission conducted a roll-call vote that recorded Commissioners D'Favio and Remedio Reghetti voting yes on the motion to approve the grouped items. The transcript does not record the individual mover or seconder for the specific Hall Public Safety agreements.

The staff member identified the purchases at the meeting as contract agreements; no estimated delivery or installation dates were provided in the excerpt.
