Lawrence County commissioners approve appointments, $33,825 preservation grant and routine transfers
Summary
Commissioners unanimously approved three workforce board appointments (resolutions 144–146), a $33,825 budget amendment for the county Preservation Board (resolution 147) and intra-department transfers, and they adopted routine warrant registers and prior meeting minutes.
The Lawrence County Board of Commissioners on June 30 voted unanimously to approve a package of routine items including three appointments to the West Central Workforce Development Board, a $33,825 budget amendment for the county Preservation Board and several intra-department budget transfers.
In a single motion the board approved resolutions 144, 145 and 146 to (1) reappoint Tammy Barbatti to represent workforce category B3 for a term from July 1, 2026, through June 30, 2029; (2) appoint Tina Robinson (mailing address listed in Edinburg area) to represent the small-business sector for the same term; and (3) reappoint Autumn Bonszo, employed by Easy Flow (flow line division), to a comparable term. "We thank these ladies for their willingness to serve," the chair said. The motion passed on a unanimous roll call with commissioners recorded as voting yes.
The board also approved resolution 147 to amend the county budget to reflect unanticipated Commonwealth revenue of $33,825 for the Preservation Board and to appropriate the revenue to the Preservation Board expense line. County staff described the receipt as unanticipated Commonwealth revenue; commissioners moved and approved the amendment by roll call.
Additionally, commissioners approved three internal transfer requests in a single motion: the sheriff’s office moved $31,000 within its budget (transferring $8,000 to maintenance and repairs and $23,000 to minor equipment), Children & Youth Services moved $1,000 from contracted provider care to advertising for community care outreach, and the Tax Claim Office transferred $500 from contingency to maintenance and repairs to cover printer repairs. Earlier in the meeting the board had also taken routine actions to accept warrant registers dated June 23 and June 26 and to adopt the June 23 minutes; both were approved by unanimous roll call.
All votes recorded during the business portion of the meeting were unanimous according to roll-call results. No contested motions or amendments were recorded.
