Lincoln County Ambulance District

1 day ago

We’ve seen the Facebook posts and heard the chatter around town—so let’s clear the air about Lincoln County Ambulance District Base 6, the little white house at 1959 E. Hwy 47.

First and foremost: we promised our community an ambulance base, and that promise still stands.

Like many construction projects—there have been several unexpected hang-ups along the way, many of which were outside the control of both Lincoln County Ambulance District and other involved parties. One of the biggest delays came from MoDOT, due to the property’s location directly on Highway 47. Projects of this nature involve significant legal, safety, and planning requirements—far more than a standard residential build—and those processes take time.

We understand the community’s concerns, and we want to be very clear: the funds are still secure and will be used for construction.
At this time, we anticipate breaking ground later this year, pending any further unforeseen setbacks. General contractor bids have been submitted and a contractor is expected to be selected within the month.

In the meantime, service has not stopped. Lincoln County Ambulance District is currently operating the ambulance designated for this area out of our Winfield base on Highland Rd, where two ambulances are staffed and running to ensure continued coverage. Additionally, response areas have been rezoned so that ambulances from locations such as Moscow Mills or Troy can respond if they are closer to the location.

As always, our priority is—and will remain—the safety and well-being of our citizens. We remain fully committed to establishing an ambulance base in the Highway 47 and Highway W area. We appreciate the community’s patience and trust as we work through these challenges. ... See MoreSee Less
