Ambulance prioritized in CIP; school expansion and facility repairs noted
Summary
Board staff said the only CIP item currently in the FY27 draft is an ambulance (the county alternates ambulance and fire apparatus purchases); schools requested a FY28 expansion and a $500,000 cafeteria addition; staff flagged a leaking health department roof and a helicopter landing‑zone need for future consideration.
Mrs. Edwards and County Administrator Boyer reviewed department CIP requests and told supervisors the ambulance is the only capital item included in the FY27 draft. Mr. Boyer said the school division has asked for an FY28 expansion and a $500,000 cafeteria expansion; staff also raised the health department roof leak and the need for a helicopter landing zone as facility priorities.
Board members discussed remounting older vehicles versus purchasing new ambulances and the possibility of a shared decision with other emergency service partners. Mr. Boyer also proposed considering a grant writer to pursue outside funding for county projects.
