Following many months of negotiations, the Town of Rehoboth has reached a new contract agreement with the Rehoboth Ambulance Committee. Rehoboth Ambulance is a private non-profit corporation which has been under contract to the town.
“We’ve spent a long long time getting to this point,” Director of Finance Sue Pimental said Monday. “There’s some provisions in here for financial assistance. The most important thing is to make sure we have great service, timely service for the residents. Every minute counts.”
Last October, the town was awarded Bristol County ARPA (American Rescue Plan Act) funds to purchase a new ambulance. The Rehoboth Ambulance Committee will be able to use it as they see fit.
“We’re excited to start moving forward to continue providing the service that we’ve been providing to the town,” Director of Operations Reuben Fischman said.
“I think we have a good agreement,” Selectmen Chair Skip Vadnais.
