Summary
The commission awarded a $98,732.01 bid to Communications International, Inc. for a new radio console and approved a resolution to apply up to $8,000 of ARPA revenue-replacement funds toward the purchase; the votes were unanimous.
The Coosa County Commission on Dec. 10, 2024, voted unanimously to award a contract for a new radio console system to Communications International, Inc., with a listed line-item total of $98,732.01. Commissioners authorized the county to move forward with the procurement after reviewing bid documentation and compliance certificates submitted Dec. 4, 2024.
The commission also adopted a resolution authorizing up to $8,000 of American Rescue Plan Act (ARPA) revenue-replacement funds to help pay for the radio dispatch console, with the resolution specifying that the remaining balance will be paid from other legally available funds. The resolution cites the county's election to designate revenue replacement funds under the Treasury final rule and reiterates ARPA deadlines for obligation and expenditure.
