Commission approves Poplar fire engine repair, high‑definition evidence cameras and DUI Task Force budget
Summary
On April 22 commissioners approved the ABC Automotive quote to repair the Poplar fire engine, purchased Option B high‑definition cameras for the Sheriff Department evidence building (described as supporting facial recognition), and approved the DUI Task Force FY25‑26 budget.
At the April 22 meeting the board approved several public-safety items. Commissioners voted to accept the lowest of five quotes for Poplar fire engine repair from ABC Automotive; the vendor will tow the engine and begin work immediately, and a replacement engine will take about a week to arrive.
The board also approved Option B for new cameras in the Sheriff Department evidence building; minutes note the Option B cameras are higher-definition than Option A and "can be used for facial recognition." Commissioners approved the DUI Task Force FY25-26 budget as presented. "A motion was made by Commissioner Toavs to approve the quote from ABC Automotive in Poplar, seconded by Commissioner Marottek... Passed," the minutes say.
