Summary
At the Nov. 26 meeting commissioners unanimously authorized EMA Director Kent Barrow to sign a termination letter for the Code Red contract, approved a temporary Everbridge contract at $1.00 per year, and adjourned the meeting.
The Floyd County Board of Commissioners recorded three unanimous procedural votes on Nov. 26.
Jason Sharp moved and Frank Loop seconded a motion authorizing EMA Director Kent Barrow to sign a termination letter ending the county’s contract with Code Red; the board approved the motion unanimously. Commissioners then approved a temporary Everbridge contract at $1.00 per contract year until the Code Red contract is concluded; Everbridge said it could begin onboarding and training by Nov. 28. Finally, the board voted unanimously to adjourn.
The transcript notes that Floyd County paid Code Red over $60,000 in 2024 for a three-year contract and that staff are pursuing a refund of approximately $30,000 for the unused portion; the record does not show whether a refund or an insurance claim has been received or approved.
