While the <br />shelter could provide shelter for 500-600 people, those people <br />could come from anywhere in the county. This cannot be limited to <br />just those from Grand Harbor. <br />Commissioner Scurlock asked if we have a county -wide program <br />for checking out emergency generators, and Director Wright advised <br />that we have a maintenance program where they are serviced twice a <br />year. <br />ON MOTION by Commissioner Bird, SECONDED by <br />Commissioner Scurlock, the Board unanimously <br />authorized the purchase of the emergency generator <br />from All Power Services for $19,909, as set out in <br />the above staff recommendation. <br />APPROVAL OF EMS ALS CERTIFICATE OF PUBLIC CONVENIENCE AND NECESSITY <br />FOR INDIAN RIVER SHORES <br />The Board reviewed the following memo dated 4/14/92: <br />TO: Board of County Commissioners <br />FROM: Doug Wright, Director` <br />Emergency Services <br />DATE: April 14, 1992 <br />SUBJECT: Approval of EMS ALS Certificate of Public Convenience and <br />Necessity for Indian River Shores Department of Public <br />Safety to Provide Pre -Hospital Emergency Medical Services <br />It is respectfully requested that the information contained herein <br />be given formal consideration by the Board of County Commissioners <br />at the next scheduled meeting. <br />DESCRIPTION AND CONDITIONS: <br />On June 12, 1990, the Indian River County Board of County <br />Commissioners approved an EMS Advanced Life Support Certificate of <br />Public Convenience and Necessity for the Town of Indian River <br />Shores. This certificate was necessary in order to comply with <br />Indian River County Code of Laws and Ordinances as specified in <br />Chapter 6.50 as an EMS ALS provider. The certificate provided for <br />Indian River Shores to operate an EMS ALS service under the SRS <br />Advanced Life Support EMS license issued to Indian River County. <br />The Town of Indian River Shores determined in 1990 that the <br />municipality would continue with the public safety concept for <br />emergency services and opted not to participate in the emergency <br />services referendum which established an Emergency Services Special <br />District. As a result of this action, the Town must apply to the <br />County and HRS for an Advanced Life Support license as a separate <br />entity prior to October 1, 1992, when the new district will be <br />created. <br />56 <br />
