Commissioners amend EMS contract language to allow city fund accounting for Larkspur service
Summary
The board approved Amendment No. 1 to the 2025 EMS contract with Larkspur Fire Department to change a requirement that funds be kept in a separate bank account to instead require a separate fund within the City of Lawrenceburg's accounting structure.
Dearborn County commissioners voted to approve Amendment No. 1 to the 2025 EMS contract with the Larkspur Fire Department, altering language that required county-held funds to be kept in a separate bank account.
County staff said Larkspur’s treasurer, Mark Feddy, requested the change because Lawrenceburg’s EMS operates as a municipal department with separate city funds rather than a standalone bank account. The amendment replaces the phrase "kept in a separate bank account" with language requiring a "separate fund of the City of Lawrenceburg," aligning contract language to municipal accounting practice.
Commissioners approved the amendment as presented. Signing logistics were discussed; staff indicated they would circulate the final document by email for signatures. The motion carried by voice vote; no roll-call tally was recorded in the meeting minutes.
