Court approves EMS repairs, selects vendor for oil-leak repair and pays ambulance bills
Summary
Court approved Med 4 repairs ($4,100) and authorized Shelby Diesel (higher estimate) to fix an oil leak; it also approved a $4,087.03 bill to Bachman and related vendor payments for EMS vehicles.
The Fiscal Court reviewed a set of EMS and fleet maintenance items and approved vendor repairs and payments.
EMS reported Med 4 required repairs (including tires) with a total described in the meeting as about $4,100. Two estimates were presented for a separate oil-leak repair: one at approximately $5,546.19 and a second estimate at approximately $5,727.69 (transcript spacing and formatting introduced ambiguity in the figures). After discussion—councilors noted Shelby Diesel’s estimate was more thorough and more likely to prevent future additional work—the court voted to approve Shelby Diesel to perform the oil-leak repair at the higher estimate as recorded in the packet.
The court also approved paying the Med 4 repair bill to Bachman in the amount recorded in the packet ($4,087.03) by motion and voice vote. Commissioners discussed warranty disputes over tire replacement and directed staff to pursue documentation and potential reimbursement negotiations where appropriate.
No roll-call vote appears in the transcript; actions were recorded as motions that passed by voice vote. Staff and EMS leadership were directed to work with county counsel and procurement staff to reconcile warranties and invoices as needed.
