At its public meeting, the Washington County Board of Commissioners approved a broad package of routine administrative and procurement items spanning division orders, vendor contracts, grant applications, provider agreements and board appointments.
Key approvals included amended division orders with Range Resources for R and R Jones Unit B and well number 4H; a landscaping contract to Bell Landscaping (DBA Cecil Supply LLC); a contract extension for memorial markers; a radio-equipment contract extension; a small contract change order for the fairgrounds exhibit hall restrooms raising the project total to $575,439.84 paid with 2023 LSA grant funds; and a purchase of a Mameca eco-solvent printer for $16,815.
The board also adopted the 2026 LSA program resolution, approved appointments to the CYS advisory board (Scott Martin and Steven Puskar) and hospital authority (Jason Hobbs and Andy Waltz), renewed a cooperative Title IV-D agreement with the Pennsylvania Department of Human Services (10/01/2025–09/30/2030), and approved a $57,763 professional services agreement with Paul Charles Snyder, Esquire, for indigent defense services funded by indigent defense and PCCD subgrant dollars.
Other actions: approval of an agreement with Jefferson County, Ohio for juvenile placement beds at $150 per day; an MOU with PRC for household hazardous waste events with an $8,000 county contribution; a PHMC grant application for $100,000 requiring a 50% match; provider agreement with Wesley Family Services for $75,000; and authorization to advertise bids and proposals for HVAC, a public safety building, forensic mental health transitional housing, emergency solutions for homelessness and courthouse stone repairs.
