County seeks DEP reimbursement and SWAN mini grant for recycling coordinator and foster care awareness events
Summary
Resolutions 2026-112 and 2026-113 authorize an Act 101, Section 903 grant application (estimated $43,000) for recycling coordinator reimbursements and a $1,300 SWAN mini grant to fund May 2026 foster/adoption awareness activities; both motions passed unanimously.
The board approved an application for an Act 101, Section 903 grant through the Pennsylvania Department of Environmental Protection, with an estimated amount of $43,000 to cover 50% reimbursement of the County Recycling Coordinator salary and eligible expenses for calendar year 2025 (Resolution 2026-112). The record states the grant application would reimburse the County for eligible costs; the transcript lists the grantor and estimated amount but does not show the full application text.
Separately, the board approved Resolution 2026-113 to apply for a $1,300 National Foster Care Awareness Mini Grant through the Statewide Adoption and Permanency Network (SWAN) to support foster, adoption and permanency recruitment and awareness activities in May 2026; no county match is required. Both grant application motions were moved by Commissioner McGonigle, seconded by Commissioner Finley, and passed unanimously.
