<br />L Defibrillator Maintenance and Support Contract <br />The Board considered entering into a continuation contract for annual maintenance and <br />support of equipment used as part of the County's Emergency Medical preparedness and <br />response activities and authorizing the Purchasing and Central Services Director to sign upon <br />review by the County Attorney. <br />Commissioner Jacobs said that it was not clear whether this was a comprehensive list or <br />just examples of places where there are defibrillators. He asked if the Link Center had one and <br />he would like to put up signs in buildings indicating that there are defibrillators on the premises. <br />Interim Emergency Services Director Kent McKenzie said that this is not a <br />comprehensive list. He is not aware of a defibrillator in the Link Center. <br />Laura Blackmon said that not all buildings have these. Commissioner Jacobs said to put <br />a sign in the buildings where there is one and to have a standardized way of making sure that <br />the public facilities with a certain number of people working there or where there are public <br />meetings have defibrillators. <br />A motion was made by Commissioner Foushee, seconded by Commissioner Jacobs to <br />approve entering into a continuation contract for annual maintenance and support of equipment <br />used as part of the County's Emergency Medical preparedness and response activities and <br />authorize the Purchasing and Central Services Director to sign upon review by the County <br />Attorney. <br />VOTE: UNANIMOUS <br />m.

She distributed a copy of the petition that was signed by <br />citizens. <br />Commissioner Jacobs said that this abstract mentions an amount in the CIP, but the <br />Board has not approved the CIP yet.
