Lancaster County approves MOA addendum to fund Dauphin County fiduciary for SCTF grants
Summary
The Board of Lancaster County Commissioners approved Addendum #6 to continue Dauphin County as fiduciary for the South Central Counter-Terrorism Task Force, authorizing $60,360 (2023 grant) and $54,388 (2024 grant) as fiduciary compensation and delegating signature authority to the SCTF executive director.
Lancaster County Commissioners voted June 17 to approve Addendum #6 to a memorandum of agreement that continues Dauphin County acting as the fiduciary agent for the Homeland Security Grant Program (HSGP) administered by the South Central Counter-Terrorism Task Force (SCTF). On the motion of Commissioner Joshua G. Parsons, the board agreed to pay Dauphin County $60,360 from the 2023 grant and $54,388 from the 2024 grant to offset fiduciary management and administrative costs.
The action authorizes Brian P. Pasquale, Executive Director of the Department of Public Safety, to sign the MOA on behalf of Lancaster County. The motion passed unanimously. The minutes note the payments come from HSGP grant funding and have no direct impact on Lancaster County’s operating budget. "The SCTF Executive Committee will provide Dauphin County with $60,360.00 from the 2023 grant and $54,388.00 from the 2024 grant," the record states.
Why it matters: the agreement preserves an established fiduciary arrangement that the SCTF uses to manage federal homeland-security grant funds on behalf of participating counties. The board’s action is limited to authorizing the fiduciary compensation and signing authority; no county general-fund dollars are identified for the payment.
