Board approves $5,600 concrete coating to replace soiled bedroom carpet
Summary
A board member moved and the board unanimously approved replacing six bedrooms’ soiled carpet with a $5,600 concrete coating after staff presented an estimate and health/allergen concerns.
The Washington County EMS board voted to replace soiled carpet in six bedrooms with a concrete coating after staff presented a $5,600 estimate from Solvents Concrete Coatings. Mr. Floyd described the current carpet as soiled down to the glue and said employees and residents have experienced allergy and contaminant issues despite repeated wet-vacuuming and shampooing.
A board member moved to proceed with the concrete coating; another member seconded. The board voted in favor unanimously. Members discussed paying for the work from the stipend line, noting midyear budget positions that make that feasible. The board instructed staff to schedule the work and to notify members when it is set.
The motion and vote were recorded during the facilities portion of the meeting; no separate bids or alternative vendors were discussed on the record.
