Delaware County Board of Supervisors Meeting 03 26 2025

The Delaware County Board of Supervisors meeting on March 26, 2025, included a detailed presentation and discussion regarding the county's ambulance service contract with AMR, which began in December 2022. The presentation reviewed two years of service data, including response times, patient contacts, billing and reimbursement rates, and operational costs. The contract covers two Basic Life Support (BLS) ambulances and a paramedic fly car, with AMR providing equipment, maintenance, and staffing benefits. The board discussed the possibility of extending the current contract versus putting the ambulance service out to bid again, considering factors such as cost, service coverage, and potential need for additional ambulances. The meeting also included a budget amendment to accept funds from the New York Department of State for a statewide investment program and authorization for awards related to the Department of Planning, Parks, and Watershed Affairs, with mention of competitive bids for parcel services.
