Nutter Fort approves purchase of 2025 Ford Transit ambulance to replace aging unit
Summary
Council approved purchasing a 2025 Ford Transit T-350 ambulance after noting two ambulances exceed 150,000 miles and repairs were outweighing replacement costs; the motion passed unanimously.
The Town of Nutter Fort approved a purchase agreement for a 2025 Ford Transit T-350 ambulance at the May 13 meeting to shore up EMS capacity. Minutes state two of the town's ambulances have over 150,000 miles and maintenance costs were exceeding the value of continued repairs. The motion by Councilor Bryan Gonzalez, seconded by Councilor Charlene Louk, passed unanimously.
EMS Supervisor Nathan Rohrbough had reported earlier that transports were at maximum capacity daily, and the council framed the purchase as replacing a high-mileage vehicle to maintain service levels. The minutes do not include vehicle price, vendor name, or delivery timeline.
