Summary
Orange Beach Council adopted multiple resolutions April 21 approving appropriations, equipment purchases (three Lucas compression devices; ambulance cots), software and service agreements, and several event and maintenance contracts.
At its April 21 meeting, the Orange Beach City Council approved a group of routine resolutions covering community events, equipment purchases and vendor agreements.
Key items the council approved included a $10,000 appropriation to Safe Harbor Animal Coalition; a resolution directing opioid-settlement funds to purchase Lucas chest-compression devices; a separate resolution authorizing purchase of three Lucas devices for the fire department at $59,819.88; and a change order accepting partial credits on two ambulances while adding two ambulance cots at a combined cost of $27,278. The council discussed stretcher types and procurement options and staff noted that equivalent cots from MATCH would likely be similar in cost.
The council also approved a software services agreement for employee background checks with GovernmentJobs/NeoGov for the police department, awarded a bid for tennis court resurfacing to American Tennis Courts ($93,572), engaged Byers and Associates for fiscal-year auditing services (not to exceed $79,850), and authorized staff contracts for festival performances and other recreation services.
All items on this slate were moved, seconded and carried by voice vote with no recorded opposition. Where the transcript recorded only unanimous 'Aye' voice votes, the meeting did not list individual named votes for those consent items.
