Greenville County’s Committee on Finance voted to approve the county’s annual EMS grant-and-aid application, chairing the approval during the committee’s regular session.

Miss Paris, presenting the application, described uses that include clinical training supplies, equipment repairs and crisis protocol certifications. "This is the annual EMS grant and aid application award that we get every year," she said. She stated the total award amount as $35,130 and said the required match will come from the grant-matching account in the FY2026 budget.

Committee members asked clarifying questions about equipment; the chair asked whether a listed device was used for intubation and Miss Paris confirmed the description. The committee approved the grant by voice vote.

The approval authorizes county staff to accept the award and apply the FY2026 budget match as described; no roll-call vote or dollar-by-dollar amendment was recorded in the transcript.
