Seneca County approves purchase of 3-acre site in Adams Township for new EMS station
Summary
The Seneca County Board of Commissioners approved a purchase agreement for three acres in Adams Township from William and Lila Miller for $40,000 to site a new EMS station; the motion followed a brief executive session and passed by roll call.
The Seneca County Board of Commissioners voted to enter a purchase agreement for three acres in Adams Township to site a new emergency medical services (EMS) station, approving a $40,000 purchase from William and Lila Miller.
Barb, county staff, told the board the parcel is farmland on State Route 19 near County Road 32 and described the site as suitable for an EMS station in the northeast corner of the county. "The purchase price is $40,000 for that 3 acres," Barb said during the meeting.
The board first moved into an executive session to discuss the purchase; the session was recorded as beginning at about 10:01 and ending about 10:04, after which the board returned and the motion to enter the purchase agreement was made and approved by roll call. The board members recorded their votes on the motion and it passed.
Commissioners and staff discussed the site's proximity to neighboring Thompson Township and thanked staff involved in negotiating the agreement. No additional conditions, easements, or financing details were recorded in the meeting minutes.
Next steps identified in the discussion included proceeding with the purchase agreement paperwork and continuing coordination for siting the EMS station and subsequent design and bid work.
