County transfers aging Bauer breathing air compressor to Eden‑Farson Fire District
Summary
Commissioners approved the transfer of a surplus Bauer mobile breathing air compressor (purchased 2006) to the Eden‑Farson Fire District; county purchasing staff estimated market value at roughly $5,000; motion passed unanimously.
Sweetwater County agreed to transfer (not donate) a Bauer mobile breathing air compressor to the Eden‑Farson Fire District after the fire district requested the surplus unit. Purchasing director Martie Durnovich said the trailer‑mounted compressor had been purchased in 2006, later circulated through area fire districts, and was currently in surplus. She estimated a market value of about $5,000 for the unit.
Commissioners moved and approved the transfer and authorized the chairman to sign title documents to complete the transfer. Commissioners said the transfer supports local fire prevention capacity without incurring immediate county cost. The board also received an update from purchasing on recent surplus sales that generated revenue. The motion to transfer was approved unanimously.
