Fayette County approves $1.04 million purchase of two medic trucks
Summary
The Fayette County Board of Commissioners voted 3-0 to award a $1,043,744 contract to Frazer, Ltd. for two medic trucks and necessary equipment, with an estimated seven-month lead time, shortening previous supply delays.
Fayette County approved the purchase of two new medic trucks and related equipment on Aug. 14, 2025, awarding Bid #2593-B, Contract #26001-S to Frazer, Ltd. The total contract value is $1,043,744, comprised of $821,744 for the trucks and $222,000 for equipment.
Fire Chief Jeff Hill told the Board the lead time to receive the trucks is estimated at seven months, a marked improvement from prior two-year waits. Chairman Lee Hearn asked about delivery timing; Chief Hill provided the estimate and County Administrator Steve Rapson thanked Chief Hill for his efforts in shortening the lead time.
Commissioner Charles D. Rousseau moved to approve the contract; Commissioner Eric K. Maxwell seconded. The motion passed 3-0, with Vice Chairman Edward Gibbons and Commissioner Charles W. Oddo absent. The approval authorizes staff to proceed with procurement under the awarded contract.
The contract will be administered through project P23AE; the Board did not specify additional contingency funding in the meeting record. The county indicated the shorter lead time was due to vendor and staff efforts but did not specify a delivery date beyond the seven-month estimate.
