Council approves one-year interlocal agreement for Eureka County ambulance backup
Summary
With Carlin's secondary ambulance out for repair until March 2025, council approved a one-year interlocal agreement in which Eureka County will provide backup ambulance coverage at no cost, with final contract language to correct insurance clauses before signing.
Carlin approved a one-year interlocal contract with Eureka County to provide backup ambulance coverage while the city’s secondary ambulance undergoes repairs. Linda Bingaman told council the secondary ambulance would be unavailable until March 2025 and that Eureka County offered the backup coverage at no cost to Carlin.
Bingaman also noted that Carlin’s primary ambulance experienced mechanical difficulties the previous day, underscoring the need for backup coverage. Denise Taylor moved to approve the interlocal contract with the understanding that insurance-clause language would be corrected prior to signing; Vice Mayor Margaret Johnston seconded and the motion passed.
Minutes state the contract is for one year and that Eureka County’s cooperation was cited by staff; signed language will reflect the corrected insurance clause.
