Woods County official moves to approve grant application for Freedom EMS

Smiley, a Woods County official, moved Oct. 27 to approve a re-grant application for Freedom EMS.

The motion was introduced during routine agenda business when the meeting reached “Number 6, discussion possible action regarding the re grant application for Freedom EMS.” Smiley said, “I’ll make a motion to approve that.” The transcript does not record a second or a vote on the motion.

The item was presented as a request to approve a grant application that would provide funds to Freedom EMS. No dollar amounts, grant source names, or conditions were stated in the recorded discussion.

Because the transcript stops short of recording a final vote or outcome, the county’s official minute entry or subsequent documentation would be needed to confirm whether the motion passed and whether the county authorized any matching funds or conditions.

If approved, the action would allow Freedom EMS to proceed with the re-grant application process; the transcript does not specify deadlines or next steps.
