Snider says the Board will closely look at the Ambulance Service's finances. Under the current budget, the Service is running on a nearly 41 thousand dollar deficit. That's the fourth consecutive year it's done so. The County Board also approved spending over $592,000 to repair the bridge on County Road 14 over McKee Creek near Siloam Springs State Park, and $140,000 to re-pave over two miles of East 1700th Street.
