York County approves appointments, emergency‑plan change and tax‑sale resolution; BOE grants vehicle exemption
Summary
The board appointed five members to the Board of Adjustments, approved an amendment and authorized signature on the emergency action plan (Appendix H), adopted a resolution to issue county tax‑sale certificates (98 parcels offered, 37 sold), and the Board of Equalization approved a motor‑vehicle tax exemption for York College's 2016 Ford F‑350.
At its March 22 meeting the York County Board of Commissioners handled several routine but formal actions.
Board of Adjustments appointments: The board approved nominations submitted by the zoning administrator and appointed Kim Regier, Gary Eberly, Jason Perdue, Max Moore and Charlie Kaufman to three‑year terms on the Board of Adjustments (terms beginning 03/01/2022 through 03/01/2025). Daniel (speaker 8) read the names and the board voted by roll call to confirm the appointments.
Emergency action plan: Commissioners reviewed edits to Appendix H (incident command contact information). A commissioner requested that the vice chairman be listed as the chairman’s backup in the incident command contact list; the board approved the emergency action plan with that change and authorized the chairman to sign the document.
Tax‑sale resolution: County Treasurer Brenda Scaville certified that on March 7 the county offered 98 delinquent real‑estate parcels for sale (total offered $68,099.71) and sold 37 parcels for $52,294.27. The board adopted a resolution allowing issuance of county tax‑sale certificates in accordance with state statute and authorized the county treasurer to proceed with issuance.
Board of Equalization—vehicle exemption: The Board of Equalization reviewed and accepted the county treasurer’s recommendation to exempt from taxation a 2016 Ford F‑350 owned by York College and used to transport employees and students for athletic and educational activities; the BOE approved the exemption by motion and roll call vote.
Votes at a glance: Appointments — approved by roll call; Emergency action plan (Appendix H) — approved with contact change and chairman authorized to sign; Tax‑sale resolution — adopted by roll call; BOE vehicle exemption for York College — approved by the Board of Equalization.
Why it matters: These actions complete statutory and administrative tasks required for county operations: ensuring zoning boards are staffed, keeping emergency contacts up to date, clearing tax‑sale processes, and allowing educational institution vehicle exemptions as filed by the treasurer.
What’s next: Staff will implement the appointments and the emergency plan change, the treasurer will issue tax‑sale certificates in accordance with state law, and the BOE exemption paperwork will be filed.
