One of Unalaska’s old ambulances is up for grabs.

City Council voted unanimously at Tuesday night’s meeting to donate the 1993 Chevy ambulance to any nearby community that can make use of it. The original proposal had been to auction off the vehicle to the highest bidder, but several councilors objected, saying Public Safety should try to gift it first.  Councilor Dennis Robinson introduced an amendment to that effect, which passed 6-0.

The receiving community will have to pay for shipping the ambulance off the island. If no community in the region wants the vehicle, it will be auctioned off to the highest bidder.

Council also voted to auction off six Caterpillar generators to the highest bidder.
