Week in review

Fire District 8 – Commissioners signed an ambulance agreement with other local fire districts. Bids for a new pumper truck came in much higher than planned, and all were rejected. A public hearing was held on whether to use money leftover from a bond passed in 2000 to redesign and rebuild the roof that collapsed on Station 82. Commissioners voted to use the money. Bids were opened for new defibrillators and will be reviewed by staff. (Source: Administrative assistant Carol Trescott)
