Board approves purchase of 9‑1‑1 dispatch consoles and authorizes vehicle procurement process
Summary
The Greenlee County Board approved purchase of two 9‑1‑1 dispatch consoles under state contract for $118,201.63 (first year included) and authorized staff to solicit proposals to acquire two sheriff vehicles using grant funds; the consent agendas were also approved.
Emergency manager Matt Bollinger asked the board to approve purchase of two new 9‑1‑1 dispatch consoles under a state contract with Aircom for $118,201.63. Bollinger confirmed the first year of service is included in that price and that ongoing annual support would be approximately $13,207. "The $118,201.63 covers the equipment and the first year of service," he said. After clarifying questions the board moved, seconded and approved the purchase by voice vote.
Fleet manager Tony Hines requested authority to acquire two vehicles for the sheriff's office using an identified DPS grant. The board amended the motion to authorize solicitation of proposals (state contract, bids or other acquisition proposals) and approved the motion. The action authorizes staff to proceed to procure — not to finalize purchases — and requires a subsequent returning agenda item when acquisition details are finalized and purchases are sought.
Earlier the board approved consent agendas for the county public health service district and the Flood Control District by voice vote. The meeting also included a routine calendar and legislative update and the board adjourned.
Actions recorded from the meeting include approval of the consent agenda, approval of the Aircom dispatch console purchase (equipment + first‑year service) and authorization to solicit proposals to acquire two sheriff vehicles using grant funding. Vote outcomes were recorded by voice as "ayes"; no roll‑call tally of individual member votes was provided in the transcript.
