Commissioners approve $20,400 gooseneck trailer for EMA, funded from Seminole County mutual-aid revenue
Summary
The Board approved purchase of a 40-foot gooseneck trailer for the Emergency Management Agency from Harvey Trailer Company for $20,400, funded from $50,700 received from Seminole County for prior hurricane mutual-aid usage.
Ware County commissioners approved the Emergency Management Agency's purchase of a 40-foot gooseneck trailer from Harvey Trailer Company for $20,400. Commissioner Leonard Burse moved to approve the purchase; Commissioner Timmy Lucas seconded and the motion passed by roll-call with Commissioner Jon Tindall absent.
County Manager James Shubert said the funding source for the trailer purchase will be revenue Ware County received from Seminole County—$50,700—for use of the county's mobile radio tower during Hurricane Michael. Commissioner Barry Cox noted the radio tower provided a strong return on a small initial outlay. The purchase uses remaining mutual-aid revenue rather than general operating funds.
