REQUEST FROM IREDELL COUNTY RESCUE SQUAD, INC., FOR LOAN ASSISTANCE ($859000): Bill Sherrill, Assistant Chief with the Iredell County Rescue Squad, advised of the need for a new ambulance.

Payments on the loan could be deducted from the special appropriation to the squad. Stewart asked who would have the liability for the vehicle.

Mr. Sherrill said the squad would assume these costs.
