Pratt County approves emergency-vehicle permits and hears EMS staffing and EMR training update
Summary
The commission approved emergency-vehicle permits for named applicants, hired a part-time lake attendant, and received EMS updates including a WSU Tech EMR class with five enrollees and an upcoming remount schedule for medic vehicles.
The commission approved applications for emergency-vehicle permits and read aloud the list of applicants whose permits were authorized by motion and voice vote. Chair read multiple names into the record and the motion passed.
Separately, an EMS representative updated the board that a WSU Tech EMR class begins tonight with five enrollees; the training is free for participants and is expected to run about five to six weeks. Staff reported minor repairs to medic 4 (exhaust manifold) and discussed remount timing and budget planning for future remounts, noting parts and labor considerations.
The parks/lake manager also announced water will be turned on at the lake (RV sites only) on Wednesday the 8th and reported hiring a part-time lake employee (Nick Barker) at $16 per hour; the hire was approved by vote. Commissioners asked staff to post notices and monitor site trash and access.
