Lewis board votes to put ambulance district question before voters
Summary
The Town of Lewis board voted to place an ambulance district proposal on the ballot after public comment and board discussion; the motion passed 4–1 with Counselor Lanita Canavan recorded in opposition.
The Town of Lewis board voted April 8 to put an ambulance district proposal before the town's voters after a public comment and a board discussion. Carolyn Sicher asked the board to "revisit the Ambulance District and get the idea out to the voters," and Supervisor James Monty said the district is a significant budget matter the town should present to residents for a decision.
The motion to move forward with a vote was made by Counselor Terry Pulsifer and seconded by Counselor John Blades. The motion passed with one recorded opposition: Counselor Lanita Canavan. The meeting minutes record the vote as having one opposed and the motion carried. Board members noted the ambulance district would be a major budget item and did not adopt a budget figure at the meeting; the next steps are procedural, to place the question on the ballot for voter consideration.
