Board approves $6,500 capital maintenance request for Fort Canaan fire/EMS site
Summary
The board approved a $6,500 capital reserve maintenance request to add 120-volt receptacles to light poles for rescue vehicles and to repair parking-lot lighting at the local fire/EMS company; supervisors said the county typically funds physical improvements to county-owned buildings.
The Fluvanna County Board of Supervisors approved a capital reserve maintenance fund request for $6,500 to install 120-volt receptacles on light poles for rescue vehicles and to repair parking-lot lighting at the Fort Canyon Fire Department (company name stated in the meeting record). A supervisor explained the work is intended to allow EMS/rescue vehicles to charge while parked and address safety and operational concerns.
Staff indicated the request was processed through the county’s facilities procedures and that such improvements are generally handled by county funds for county-owned buildings. A motion to approve the request passed on the record by the chair with the vote recorded as "Aye" (transcript shows the chair’s vote recorded as "4 0").
The improvement was described as not large enough to require capital-project budgeting and will be scheduled with facilities maintenance.
