Council approved a resolution assigning the town's disaster and debris management contract from Bergeron Emergency Services Inc. to EDS Holdco LLC, an entity staff said has the necessary equipment and experience. Representatives from Bergeron and EDS described their operational capabilities, including housing, food services and generators for large utility and disaster responses; council members and staff said the transition followed an extended vetting process and that Bergeron's operational team will remain engaged.
