Lavaca County approves $10,000 sale of 2014 ambulance to Wharton County
Summary
The commissioners approved selling a 2014 Dodge Ram 3500 ambulance (VIN 3C7WRSBLOEG189256) to Wharton County for $10,000, with county staff explaining a transaction path that keeps the transfer within legal bounds for intergovernmental sales.
Lavaca County commissioners approved the sale of a 2014 Dodge Ram 3500 ambulance to Wharton County for $10,000 during their Sept. 10 meeting.
Michael Furr, the county’s EMS director, explained legal limits on direct sales to municipalities outside the county and described a plan in which the ambulance will be transferred to Wharton County, which would then make the asset available to the City of Wharton. Furr said he coordinated with Wharton County officials and counsel to finalize the transfer path.
The court moved, seconded and approved the sale by voice vote; the VIN (3C7WRSBLOEG189256) was provided in the meeting packet as part of the record.
The sale is intended to transfer county surplus EMS equipment to another local government with a county‑to‑county transfer that complies with the county’s legal obligations for asset disposition.
