Lebanon County commissioners complete 2025 reorganization, appoint officers and board leads
Summary
The Lebanon County Board of Commissioners conducted its annual reorganization and approved a slate of officers, solicitors, board chairs and schedules for 2025, voting unanimously on the motions presented.
Lebanon County commissioners on Jan. 2025 completed their annual reorganization, electing officers, confirming solicitors and approving meeting schedules, bond depositories and board appointments for the year.
The board unanimously approved motions to elect officers and make appointments for 2025 during the reorganization portion of the meeting. Commissioners also approved the county meeting schedule for 2025, named the county's bond depository banks, and set weekly work-session times.
The reorganization included these confirmed actions: the board elected a chairman (name not specified in the public record excerpt), nominated Commissioner Phillips as vice chairman, approved Commissioner Lehi as secretary for 2025, and appointed Matthew K. Boogley as county solicitor. The board also approved liaison assignments, bond depository banks recommended by the county treasurer, and an annual meeting schedule with weekly work sessions on Wednesdays beginning at 1:30 p.m. in Room 207 of the municipal building.
The commissioners established leadership for related bodies. For the Board of Assessment and Revision of Taxes, Commissioner Lidsby was named chair and Commissioner Cooley vice chair; Jamie Vogelmuth was appointed administrator and Daniel Seaman was reappointed as chief county assessor. The Board of Elections reappointed Sean Drasher as chief clerk, reappointed the solicitor for the board (listed as Matthew K. Boogley in the record), and appointed Commissioner Phillips as chair of the election board. The commissioners authorized payment of necessary expenses incurred by these boards and approved advertising dates for the assessment board meetings for 2025.
Votes at a glance: all motions described above were moved, seconded and carried by voice vote with the board recording unanimous “aye” votes in the public record excerpt. Specific roll-call tallies were not provided in the transcript excerpt.
Why it matters: Annual reorganizations set leadership, legal counsel and administrative structure for the year and determine where citizens and staff should bring items for each commission-related board.
The meeting then moved on to other agenda items, including personnel transactions and contract ratifications.
