York County commissioners authorize juvenile diversion grant, appoint extension board member and approve employee rebate
Summary
The board authorized a juvenile-diversion grant application for roughly $35,480, adopted a resolution appointing Jeff Steckman to the extension board for a three‑year term beginning January 2023, named county depositories and approved a $200 premium rebate for traditional health-insurance members after receiving a UnitedHealthcare rebate.
At its Dec. 13 meeting the York County Board of Commissioners approved several administrative and fiscal actions, including authorization for a juvenile diversion grant, an extension-board appointment, bank depositories for 2023 and an employee premium rebate tied to a UnitedHealthcare check.
Staff told the board the juvenile diversion grant application is due Dec. 22 and that the grant amount for the coming year is roughly $35,480; the board voted to authorize the chairman to sign the application when finalized. No mover/second names are specified in the meeting record; the board completed the action by roll call.
The board adopted a resolution appointing Jeff Steckman — identified in the meeting as vice president of Ag Moments at Cornerstone Bank — to the extension board for a three-year term beginning January 2023. The presenter said Steckman would serve at-large following recent redistricting and departures from the extension board.
In a separate resolution the board named the county's depositories for 2023 as the same institutions used the previous year: Cornerstone Bank, Henderson State Bank, Midwest Bank, York State Bank and Union (transcript lists 'Npate' / Union). The resolution was adopted with no substantive discussion recorded.
On employee benefits, the board discussed a UnitedHealthcare rebate the county received (stated in the meeting as about $30,000). Commissioner Becky moved to approve a $200 premium rebate for employees who carry traditional health insurance (not HSA plans); the board approved that motion by roll call. Becky framed the payment as a one‑time premium rebate proportional to last year's per-member refund.
Earlier in the meeting the board reviewed payroll and vendor claims (including a transit/aging services vehicle expense) and moved to approve them as presented.
Minutes show the board handled these items by motion and roll call during the Dec. 13 session; explicit vote tallies by named commissioners are not consistently recorded in the transcript beyond affirmative roll-call confirmations.
