Clinton County approves $171,671.49 9‑1‑1 center upgrade and several grant, hiring and payroll actions
Summary
The Clinton County Board of Commissioners approved a $171,671.49 contract to upgrade the county 9‑1‑1 center, multiple CDBG and PennDOT grant actions, several hires and a payroll/bills authorization during its Feb. 12 meeting; personnel moves include promotions, transfers, a resignation and two new dispatcher hires.
The Clinton County Board of Commissioners voted Feb. 12 to approve a Carpet and Console Furniture Services Agreement with Zybix Systems, Inc. for upgrades to the county 9‑1‑1 center at a total cost of $171,671.49, with completion expected by April 30, 2026. Commissioner (S3) presented the agreement and the board approved it by voice vote.
The upgrade, described during the meeting as a County Department of Emergency Services project, was introduced as part of a slate of operational and grant actions. Commissioners also approved a Sabin Maintenance and Service Agreement with the PA District Attorneys Institute for 2026 (noted as at no cost to the county); a FY2024 CDBG subrecipient agreement with the Clinton County Historical Society to perform blight remediation at the Farronsville furnace site; transfers of prior CDBG subrecipient agreements from the Renovo Borough Water Authority to the Western Clinton County Municipal Authority for the 12th Street Water Main Project; and a professional services agreement with CITECOG to assist the county Planning Office with HOME grant intake screening.
On personnel, the board approved promoting Brianna Johnson from dispatcher trainee to full‑time 9‑1‑1 dispatcher in Emergency Services effective Feb. 1, 2026, at an annual salary of $43,418. The board also approved transferring Cheryl Quezada from Magisterial District Court Clerk 1 to Second Deputy Treasurer effective Feb. 16, 2026 (salary details given in the record), accepted the resignation of Audra Holmes as 9‑1‑1 chief supervisor effective Feb. 8, 2026, and approved hiring Bridal Toner and Kristen McAndrew as full‑time 9‑1‑1 dispatcher trainees effective Feb. 17, 2026, each with an annual salary reported as $38,723.
The board approved payment of county bills totaling $562,178.81 for the two‑week period ending Feb. 12, 2026, and net payroll of $339,360.62. Votes on these items were taken by voice and recorded as approved; individual roll-call tallies were not provided in the transcript.
Why it matters: the 9‑1‑1 center upgrade is a public‑safety capital expenditure that should improve emergency‑dispatch infrastructure; the personnel actions affect continuity of emergency services staffing; and the grant and contract approvals enable infrastructure and remediation projects in the county.
The contracts and personnel actions were presented in agenda order and approved during the Feb. 12 meeting. The board announced county offices will be closed Feb. 16 for Presidents' Day and extended congratulations to Fire Chief Tyre Wooding on a professional certification. The meeting adjourned after the approvals.
