The Armstrong County Board of Commissioners on June 4 unanimously approved several financial and contractual items recommended by county staff.
The board, on the recommendation of Controller Tammie Gaff, approved a renewal of the county’s Fiduciary Liability Policy with Federal Insurance Company. Holly Laird, District Manager for the Armstrong Conservation District, recommended the county approve an Entity Application for a Regional Conservation Partnership Program (RCPP) supplemental agreement with the U.S. Department of Agriculture; that agreement was approved unanimously. The board also approved lease agreements recommended by Lisa Shaffer, Executive Director of the Area Agency on Aging, including a lease with David Knepshield and a lease with the Freeport VFW.
Earlier in the meeting the board acknowledged purchase orders for the week of May 26, 2026, in the amount of $68,351.78 and for the week of June 2, 2026, in the amount of $54,729.43; together those amounts total $123,081.21 and were acknowledged by unanimous vote following Chief Clerk Karen M. Notto’s recommendation.
Each contract or agreement was moved by Commissioner Anthony G. Shea, seconded by Commissioner Pat Fabian and carried unanimously. The meeting minutes do not include contract terms, dollar values for the insurance renewal or the USDA agreement, or lease amounts; those details are not specified in the record and would require follow-up with county staff.
