Schley County awards community‑center generator contract to EninSol, reviews repair list and department reports
Summary
The board approved the lower bid from EninSol for a community center generator, reviewed needed repairs for the facility (with offers of help from the sheriff and commissioners), and received department reports on EMS activity and multiple water‑main repairs.
The Schley County Board of Commissioners voted Jan. 13 to accept the lower bid from EninSol for a community center generator. Commissioner Barineau made the motion; Commissioner Jones seconded and the motion passed unanimously.
The Recreation Department provided a list of needed repairs and maintenance for the community center/gym. Chairman Clark said the department could handle some items; Sheriff Nelson offered a trustee who could assist with tasks, and Commissioner Barineau said he could obtain a lift for work that requires elevated access.
In department reports, Fire/EMS Chief Montgomery reported 82 total EMS calls in the reporting period and 13 fire‑related incidents. He said pump service testing was completed on Engine 2 and Engine 5, and that one EMT‑B completed EMT‑Advanced coursework and will test for National Registry EMT‑Advanced certification.
Water and roads superintendent Barfield reported a decrease in water usage for the reporting cycle, 750 meters read, and 94,480 gallons of water sold to Andersonville. Barfield said crews completed repairs for multiple 8‑inch water main breaks (including Concord Church Road and Raybon Road), installed three new services and a 900‑foot 2‑inch water main, established seven new 911 addresses, removed a fallen tree from McMickle Road, replaced missing road signs, hauled sand and red dirt for maintenance, and continued progress on the Golden Triangle project (WJ Story Road complete; Harpers working on Kirby Road).
Chairman Clark said budget amendments will be available at the next meeting. The generator contract award and the repair list will move forward as staff coordinate procurement and facility repairs.
