(KNZA)--The Brown County Commission approved two expenditures at their January 31 meeting through funds awarded to the county through the American Rescue Plan Act.
Approved was the purchase of mobile radios for the county fire departments from Midwest Mobile in the amount of nearly $372,000 and $57,000 to planning consultant Dick Horton for services in developing a comprehensive plan for the county.
The action came after County Clerk Dawn Boyles told commissioners the Loyd Group had determined both requests met all the criteria for ARPA funding.
The Commission also voted 2-1 to move forward with submitting a request to utilize ARPA funding for a culvert mapping project to the Loyd Group for review. Commissioner Bill Pollock cast the dissenting vote.
