Parmer County approves ARPA payment to help Lazbuddie volunteer fire department buy heart monitor-defibrillator
Summary
The Parmer County Commissioners voted May 13 to use American Rescue Plan Act funds to help the Lazbuddie Volunteer Fire Department pay a yearly charge for a heart monitor-defibrillator; the amount was not specified in the meeting record. The motion passed by majority vote.
Parmer County Commissioners on May 13 approved using American Rescue Plan Act (ARPA) funds to help the Lazbuddie Volunteer Fire Department pay the yearly charge for a heart monitor-defibrillator.
Commissioner Casey Russell moved to provide the payment from ARPA funds; Commissioner Charles Wilkins seconded the motion, which carried by majority vote. The county had previously assisted the department with this payment when Lazbuddie was unable to meet the required charge, the minutes state.
The meeting transcript records that commissioners discussed the “vital need for this equipment in the Lazbuddie area,” but does not list the dollar amount of the payment. The minutes note only that the county agreed to help and reference an attached order. No implementation timeline or further conditions were recorded.
Because the minutes do not specify the payment amount or schedule, those details remain not specified in the public record from this meeting.
