The Bremen Town Council members are getting closer to the point to approve a contract for a new EMS service.
Bremen Director of Operations Trend Weldy said the current ambulance contract will expire this summer and the council will accept bids for a new ambulance service. The council will meet with the ambulance board next week to go over specifications for a new contract. A new ambulance company is expected to be in place this fall.
Four companies have expressed interest in bidding for the service.
Work is complete on the new ambulance building. The town purchased the building last year and the remodeling phase is done. Weldy said just a few small items remain such as the installation of a new hot water heater, washer and dryer, stove, and refrigerator.
The ambulance service shares the building with the food pantry.
