Ambulance Commission to recommend whether Floyd County should pursue feasibility study
Summary
The Floyd County Ambulance Commission will meet next week to decide whether the county should complete a feasibility study and which consultant to recommend; both boards told staff they would support moving forward pending the commission's recommendation.
County officials said the Floyd County Ambulance Commission will meet next week to determine whether the ambulance service feasibility study should be completed and which consulting firm to recommend to the boards.
Both the Charles City City Council and the Floyd County Board of Supervisors expressed they would be in favor of moving forward with a study, but the meeting minutes do not record any formal study authorization or funding decision. The commission's recommendation is the next procedural step before any contract or expenditure is approved.
Officials noted differing timelines and cost proposals from the two vendors: Emergency Medical Solutions proposed a six-month, $39,750 study; Public Consulting Group proposed a five-month, $44,500 study that includes a multi-day on-site visit. The commission meeting next week is expected to address those differences and recommend a path forward.
