Commissioners approve disabled-veteran tax exemptions and appoint conservation district public director nominee

Lebanon County commissioners approved real-estate tax exemptions for disabled veterans and appointed a public director to the county conservation district during the meeting.

A county official presented three disabled-veteran real-estate tax exemptions recommended as qualified by the Department of Military and Veterans Affairs: Fred Nixon of Jill Anne Drive (Lebanon), John Campbell of Steiner Road (Annville, per transcript) and Michael Fraterolli (address listed as Real Estate, Lebanon in the record). The board moved and seconded approval; the motions were carried by voice vote with "aye" recorded.

On the conservation district appointment, the county received nominations from the state-provided list. The transcript records that nominees included Alan Balmer and Tomomi Horning (both listed as first-choice nominees) and Michael Schroeder (second-choice nominee). The board moved to appoint the nominee who is identified in the record by the informal name "Tee" (the speaker clarified that "Tee" refers to Tamangi in the record); the motion was seconded and carried by voice vote. Resumes for Michael Schroeder and other nomination materials were provided per the record.

The transcript contains variations and some unclear name spellings for nominees and beneficiaries; the article uses names as provided in the meeting record and notes where the record does not provide full or consistent identifying details.
