Summary

St. James Township approved purchase of a 1985 Type-3 Modular Ambulance in East Jordan for $2,100 after the EMS millage proposal was approved by voters. The published minutes say the vehicle was operational and state-approved.

Evidence limits

The newspaper minutes report the approval and planned costs; they do not by themselves document delivery, title transfer, or later service history.
