The board approved a Letter of Support for a Local Share Account grant application to PA DCED seeking $426,679 for a 16‑ft camera truck for the Berks‑Montgomery Municipal Authority; Vice‑Chair Sara Carpenter recused.

Manager Andrew Duncan told the board that Mr. Corson requested a Letter of Support for a Local Share Account (LSA) grant application to the Pennsylvania Department of Community and Economic Development (PA DCED) for $426,679 to purchase a 16‑foot camera truck for the Berks‑Montgomery Municipal Authority (BMMA). The board approved the letter (motion by Chairman Stouch, second by Supervisor Bergstresser); Vice‑Chair Sara Carpenter recused from that vote.
