Commissioners accept $4,747 Homeland Security award for Mananock special response uniforms
Summary
Cheshire County commissioners voted to accept a $4,747 award from the New Hampshire Department of Safety Homeland Security "Grama" program to buy protective uniforms for the Mananock special response team and authorized a county official to sign the agreement.
Unidentified Speaker introduced agenda item 1218 and said the board was being asked to accept a New Hampshire Department of Safety Homeland Security "Grama" program award of $4,747 for the Mananock special response team.
Suzanne Vanleton, who presented the item, said the funding is "for special uniforms for them to wear that are, like, fireproof and waterproof, things like that." She asked the commissioners to accept the award and authorize Chris Coats to sign the agreement on the county's behalf.
A motion to accept the award was made and seconded on the record. Commissioners Wozniak and Ingalls recorded their votes as "Aye" during the roll call; the chair proceeded to complete the action and Vanleton confirmed she will deliver the contract for signature and handle notarization logistics. Vanleton thanked the board and left the meeting after the vote.
Why it matters: The award buys personal protective equipment for a county special response team; the item was small in dollar value but required formal board acceptance because the funding arrives through the state's Department of Safety program.
What happens next: Vanleton indicated the contract is ready for signature by the county representative (Chris Coats) and will be returned with the certificate of vote once signed.
