Summary

Two decommissioned ambulances were declared surplus and approved for donation to Johnston Community College for training use.

Johnston County Emergency Services asked the board on Aug. 18 to declare two ambulances (fleet numbers 149 and 153) surplus and donate them to Johnston Community College. Deputy Director Josh Holloman and EMS Chief Ted Hardy explained the vehicles were no longer fit for frontline emergency response but could provide training value for the community college’s public safety programs.

County staff confirmed the college had agreed to accept the ambulances. Commissioners praised the mutual benefit: the college gains tangible training equipment while county EMS supports workforce development. The board approved the surplus declaration and donation by voice vote.

Ending: Staff will coordinate vehicle transfer and handling with Johnston Community College.
