Votes at a glance (committee action: placed on May 6 legislative agenda):
- Penn Waste contract for dumpster and roll-off services: Staff said separating dumpster/roll-off from refuse-collection bidding reduced cost from $245,770.80 (an ESE Management Services submission) to $184,199.40; the committee voted to place the resolution awarding a contract to Penn Waste Incorporated on the May 6 agenda.
- Fiscal-year 2025 budget amendment (highway/bridge maintenance): A bill to amend FY2025 by $60,793 to pay pending bridge-maintenance invoices (MNOA) was advanced to May 6; staff explained invoices budgeted in 2024 became due in 2025 and require a rollover.
- Agreement with PMA for workers' compensation insurance: The committee advanced the annual PMA renewal (fully insured workers' compensation policy) to May 6; administration said the final premium quote was imminent and that budgeting included a safety factor.
- WellSpan contribution and FY2025 budget amendment (police, fire, health): The committee advanced a budget amendment to incorporate approximately $1 million received from WellSpan for police, fire and health programs, including purchase of vehicles for police/community services and fire-duty vehicles, medical-director contract and program support; staff said some previously budgeted items already exist in the base budget and that the amendment adjusts line items so the funds can be spent.
Each placement motion was approved by voice vote and will return to the council on May 6 for formal consideration, including any final contract documents, budget language and supporting materials.
