Town bargains to buy new ambulance for eight thousand
Westport the board of finance will consider a five thousand dollar appropriation to replace the town ambulance now out of service due to engine trouble. Comptroller John J Kemish says he will request approval at Monday night meeting. Miller Meteor of White Plains offers a 1967 Cadillac ambulance for eight thousand dollars including trade in. Superior of Roselyn N Y bids twelve thousand six hundred for a 1968 Cadillac with higher list price and smaller trade in. The White Plains bid lacks a breakdown. The town previously paid seven thousand five hundred for the 1963 model. The current vehicle was taken over from the Fire department in July with engine leak damage, high mileage and unsafe brakes. The town had planned to replace the ambulance next year anyway.
