SIDNEY — The Shelby County commissioners received statements of qualifications from six, independent, radio communications consulting services during the regular commission meeting, Dec. 4.

The qualifications were in response to the commissioners’ request in their search for a consultant to assist in the review and evaluation of Shelby County’s current public safety radio system. They took all statements under advisement.

In other business during meetings in late November and throughout December, the commissioners:

• Approved vacating a portion of Canal Street and alleys in Newport.

• Appointed Kiera Sullivan to the Sidney Shelby Economic Parnership Baord of Trustees for a three-year term.

• Approved payments and fund transfers as needed.
