Commissioners approve routine agenda items, EMS write-offs and refer school-photo contract to full commission
Summary
The Bedford County meeting approved the agenda, minutes and departmental reports by voice vote; it also approved BCEMS debt write-offs and referred a Life and Touch school-photography contract to the full commission for further action.
The board approved a set of routine administrative items early in the meeting, including the meeting agenda and the minutes for November, following motions and seconding by members in the meeting’s opening sequence.
Later, Speaker 7 briefed the commission on EMS receivable write-offs, saying those accounts had completed collection attempts and needed commission approval to be written off. The board moved, seconded and approved the write-offs by voice vote; Speaker 1 emphasized the write-off motion must go to the full commission for finalization.
Speaker 7 also noted a contract with Life and Touch (school photography) that exceeds a single-year term and therefore must be referred to the full commission. Speaker 2 moved to approve and send that contract to the full commission; the motion was seconded and approved by voice vote.
