County presses Bug Tussel for tower timeline, approves RFPs for radio and emergency management work
Summary
Price County's executive committee requested specific timelines and plans from Bug Tussel for proposed towers and radios; the board approved two RFPs related to courthouse electrical work and consulting on towers/radio/emergency management.
Executive Committee members reported that Bug Tussel representative Jesse Lane provided a brief update but the county had not received concrete timelines or tower‑location details. Committee members stressed the imperative need to receive specific information from Bug Tussel, including a timeline for tower construction, because county emergency management upgrades depend on the type and placement of cellular towers.
The committee recommended and approved two requests for proposals: one for a courthouse electrical panel update and another to hire a consulting firm to advise on towers, radio systems and the emergency management project. County staff set a deadline expectation for Bug Tussel to provide a plan at the committee level before full implementation can proceed.
