EMS Dispatch
As local units of government enter into exclusive contracts with ambulance agencies, discussion as to how they will be dispatched has come up. Mr. Lattie recited the current / original dispatch policy to the General Membership, stating that the closest most appropriate ambulance agency is dispatched. At some point, he stated a recommendation may come before the General Membership to modify the policy.
C. Property Purchase – Update
The purchase of the State Police post and bank building is now complete. The State Police have indicated they want to stay in there current location (at the Center) as well as occupy the bank building. We are currently in discussions with the Department of Management and Budget and the Attorney Generals’ office writing a new or amended lease.
Since we closed on the building (August 23rd) we have moved rather quickly in several areas, aside from working with DMB we have already recently initiated a contract for a Master Plan with our architectural firm Asselin Associates. We have also signed contracts for landscaping, snowplowing, as well as a maintenance agreement for heating and air conditioning for both buildings. We also recently repaired both roofs at a very reasonable price.
