Court approves fire-alarm monitoring contract for new EMS station to allow invoice processing
Summary
Court approved a previously reviewed fire-alarm monitoring agreement for the new EMS station (invoice $600 for 2026) so the county attorney could sign and auditors could process the payment; the contract had been approved earlier but the invoice surfaced after a database upgrade.
County staff told the court that the EMS station requires an alarm-monitoring system under warranty and that a monitoring contract, previously approved in January, reappeared with an invoice after a database upgrade. The invoice covers monitoring from Jan. 1, 2026, to Dec. 31, 2026, at $600.
Staff said the county attorney reviewed and approved the agreement and that, to allow timely payment processing, the judge should sign the contract. A commissioner moved to approve the fire alarm monitoring agreement and to authorize the judge to sign. The motion passed and staff will forward the invoice to the auditor for processing.
Commissioners noted the system will meet audit and building warranty requirements and that staff may re-evaluate monitoring after the first year.
