Lycoming County commissioners approve CDBG modification, vendor agreements and delete two legacy personnel policies
Summary
Commissioners ratified invoices, approved a CDBG FY2024–FY2025 budget modification and contracts with JJ Keller and E Plus, ratified multiple personnel actions and voted to remove two legacy policies that required new employees to appear before the board.
At their public meeting, Lycoming County commissioners approved several administrative and budgetary items, including a Community Development Block Grant modification, vendor agreements, software renewal and the deletion of two longstanding personnel policies.
Action 7.1: The board approved a CDBG modification to abandon a 2024 project (Lifelike Homing) and reallocate those funds to a 2025 Park Loop Restoration activity, with certifications and submittals to the Department of Community and Economic Development (DCED) to follow.
Action 7.2: Commissioners approved a 2026‑budgeted agreement with JJ Keller Inc., a vendor that supplies lubricants used by county equipment. The presenter said the agreement opens another pricing avenue in addition to existing contracts.
Action 7.3: The board approved renewal of endpoint detection software with E Plus for an initial payment of $18,762.13 to carry the county through to 2029, with higher year‑two and year‑three payments noted in the contract summary presented to the board.
Action 7.4: Commissioners voted to remove two policies from the county’s policy manual: Policy 200 (conduct), which the board said had been replaced by the County of Lycoming Code of Conduct Policy 101 (dated April 2, 2026), and Policy 211 (new employees meeting the commissioners, dated Sept. 20, 2007), which required new employees to attend a commissioners’ meeting. The board said the requirement made some employees uncomfortable and decided the presentation should be optional.
Personnel: The board ratified internal personnel changes (promotions and reassignments) and new hires across departments, with salary, hourly and start‑date details read into the record.
Finance: Staff presented invoices due through July 8, 2026, to be paid July 1, 2026. The transcript lists the amount as "400 41,679.97"; commissioners moved, seconded and approved ratification. The record did not include a roll‑call vote for these items; approvals were taken by voice vote.
The board adjourned and scheduled its next meeting for July 9, 2026.
