Plymouth Fire Chief Rod Miller asked the Plymouth Board of Public Works and Safety members this week for the prepayment of a new ambulance.
“I’m asking the board authorize Clerk-Treasurer Jeanine Xaver to prepay an invoice to Crossroads Ambulance Service in the amount of $186,806 even,” said Miller. “It’s supposed to be done any time now. If we could have authorization for Jeanine to do that and hold the check until the inspection has been done by me and accepted by me.”
Miller said he doesn’t want to wait two weeks for the next board meeting to approve the invoice for payment as he needs to pay for the ambulance upon receipt.
Clerk-Treasurer Jeanine Xaver presented a previous ordinance that allows her to prepay an expense prior to the receipt of the goods or service if the board approves.
The board unanimously approved the request.
