Barbour County to pursue Community Facilities Grant after $1.6M CDS award for ambulance station
Summary
The commission recorded a $1.6 million Congressionally Directed Spending award for an Ambulance Authority station and voted to submit a Community Facilities Grant application; commissioners will explore a vacant Board of Education property as a potential site.
Barbour County received a $1.6 million Congressionally Directed Spending award for construction of an Ambulance Authority station. The commission voted on March 2 to submit a Community Facilities Grant application to secure the CDS funds; the motion to submit was made by David Strait, seconded by Jedd Schola, and passed 3–0.
Commissioners said they plan to attend a Board of Education meeting to inquire about a vacant property that previously housed a State Police facility as a possible site for the ambulance station. The minutes do not record a final site selection or a construction timeline; the grant-submission motion authorizes staff to proceed with the application process.
