Potter County Commissioners voted unanimously on a slate of routine and policy items at their April 16 meeting, approving proclamations, two resolutions, a $17,500 greenways grant that carries a 50% local match from Act 13 funding, and annual maintenance agreements for county generators.
The board approved the minutes from its April 2, 2026 meeting after Commissioner Robert Rossman moved to approve and Commissioner Paul Reimel seconded; all three commissioners voted yes. The commissioners then approved a proclamation designating May 2026 as Mental Health Awareness Month (moved by Rossman, seconded by Reimel) and a proclamation recognizing Conservation District Week, April 26–May 2, 2026 (moved by Commissioner Nancy Grupp, seconded by Reimel); both proclamations passed unanimously.
The board passed Resolution 3 of 2026, appointing person(s) to perform services under the Pennsylvania Real Estate Tax Sale Law (motion by Rossman, seconded by Grupp) and Resolution 4 of 2026 to establish a County Records Improvement Committee and adopt a Comprehensive Records Management Plan (motion by Reimel, seconded by Rossman). Both resolutions were approved by unanimous vote.
Commissioners also approved acceptance of a $17,500 North Central Greenways Implementation grant for the Wild Elk Gravel — Potter County Expansion Project. Commissioner Paul Reimel moved to approve the grant and to authorize a 50% local match from Act 13 funding; Commissioner Nancy Grupp seconded and the motion carried unanimously. The record indicates the local match will be funded from Act 13 revenues; the transcript does not specify a dollar amount for the match.
