I can't beleve Benton Co. is worried about how to spend $60,000 in grant money for Emergency Services. That is a mear drop in the bucket, even given the guidelines they have to go by.
Replace old equipment, buy needed equipment or upgrad where it's needed.
Do it before the next big desaster like this year's Ice Storm hits.
That way Benton Co. can get this year's grant.
Remember, better equipment saves lives. And that is what the ES does.

Well, it is now June 8th. Has any progress been made in how to spend the "Grant Money"? Or do these people need someone who can take them by the hand & say "This needs upgraded, that needs replaced,this needs fixxed, ect"?
This just means that the people in charge of spending the money wisly should be replaced with people who do see the needs.
