The Centre County Board of Commissioners recorded multiple formal actions during the meeting, summarized below.

Resolution 19 of 2025 — Mount Nittany Hospital Authority refunding: The board approved a resolution finding that a refunding project by the Centre County Hospital Authority would further the health, safety and welfare of county residents and would facilitate refunding bonds issued in 2016 and 2018 for Mount Nittany Medical Center. Presenters said the refunding is expected to achieve market-based debt-service savings and that a TEFRA hearing was not required for this refunding. The resolution was moved, seconded and approved by voice vote.

Contract and consent-agenda items: The board approved several contract actions or agreed to add them to next week’s consent agenda, including a Carahsoft Technology contract for Procore project-management software (to support in-house capital project management), a preventative-maintenance contract with Right Elevator for four elevators at the Community Services Building, and an Ehrlich Pest Control addendum for interior pest services (the pest-control item was described as approximately $5,175 for the coming year). An IT contract addendum with CDWG to increase SharePoint storage from 7 TB to 12 TB for $6,450 (Jan. 1–June 30, 2026) was likewise added to the consent agenda.

Public defender system storage: The public defender’s office sought and received approval for an Abacus case-management system addendum to expand cloud storage capacity following a cloud migration and a temporary shortage of space.

Grants: The board approved multiple grant applications — a probation adult parole grant from the Pennsylvania Commission on Crime and Delinquency (PCCD) for about $111,885 (grant period cited July 1, 2025–June 30, 2026, retroactive), and the county’s annual intermediate-punishment (treatment courts) grant application (approximate annual allocation $130,000) that supports partial salaries and services for probation and drug/DUI courts.

Administrator’s emergency authorization ratified: The board ratified an administrator emergency authorization for a seven-day single-case agreement to place a child with Family Links after county staff secured temporary placement; the action was described as necessary to ensure a safe placement while a regular contract is pursued.

Check run and human-services report: The board approved the check run dated Nov. 26 and approved Revision No.1 to the FY23–24 human services block-grant income-and-expense report after the Department of Human Services agreed to the county’s allocation adjustments.

Each motion described above was moved, seconded, and approved by voice vote or unanimous consent as recorded in the meeting transcript. For items added to the consent agenda, formal adoption will be recorded next week when the consent agenda is considered.
