Cameron County accepts grants, trust dividend and proclaims June as Men's Health Month; one allocation tabled
Summary
The commission acknowledged multiple notices and awards (including a $20,433 trust dividend and a $28,457 CDBG extension for a recreation lift project), approved a proclamation naming June 2026 Men's Health Month, and tabled an Act 13 allocation for the recreation center because a vendor quote was not yet available.
During routine business the Cameron County Commissioners reviewed correspondence and accepted notices from state and local programs, approved a health proclamation, and tabled an allocation pending vendor pricing.
Clerks reported incoming items including Department of Human Services changes to statewide adoption and permanency unit-of-service payment rates effective July 1; the CCAP unemployment compensation trust’s audited financial statement and a dividend payment of $20,433 authorized to Cameron County; an Act 14 notice from EQT seeking permit coverage for the Mason No. 1 well plugging and site restoration; and a Community Development Block Grant confirmation extending $28,457 for a recreation lift project.
The board moved and approved a proclamation naming June 2026 as Men's Health Month, citing lower male life expectancy and higher chronic disease burdens and deaths of despair; the proclamation passed by voice vote (tally not recorded). A separate motion to update an Act 13 allocation for equipment and installation at the recreation center was tabled because an up-to-date vendor quote was not available; the motion to table was seconded and approved by voice vote.
The board also approved the prior meeting minutes by motion and voice vote. The meeting adjourned at 11:49 a.m.
