The Board of Public Works and Safety approved two separate items on Dec. 1: a resolution authorizing donation of older fire-investigation cameras to the Organ Town Volunteer Fire Department and a special‑purchase determination that cleared the way for the sanitation division to acquire a 2025 camera truck for sewer inspections.

A chief who presented the donation said the department has newer video cameras and requested approval under the board’s surplus/donation process, citing Resolution 25‑18 as the authorizing mechanism. The board approved the resolution.

Mister Petty then presented the sanitation purchase, describing a 2025 camera truck/demo unit that carries a stated $10,000 demo discount. In the meeting transcript Petty quoted a demo‑unit price of $31,364.14 and later referenced a total purchase price of $131,036.04; he also said the department expected to trade in its current 2022 camera truck. Staff told the board funds are available in a 2026 budget code. The board approved the special‑purchase determination and the purchase as presented.

The transcript contains inconsistent or conversationally reported numbers around the trade‑in and total cost; the amount available in the 2026 budget was cited by staff but the transcript does not include an invoice or contract number. The board’s recorded action was procedural — a special purchase determination followed by approval — and no roll‑call vote names were captured in the record.
