Kim Linton, director of aging and community services, presented contracts that included American Sign Language interpreter services, additional state food purchase funding distributed through the Central Pennsylvania Food Bank, a comprehensive care connections addendum that pays $100 per completed evidence-based program instance and an annual information-technology subscription for senior-center check-in and Copilot community services. \"It's our annual subscription... for our check-in at the senior centers and agency and administration,\" Linton said.

Jamie Ryberg presented seven children and youth contracts, including rate increases for several out-of-home placements and new or amended shelter and preventative-aftercare services. Ryberg said increases ranged from about 1.19% to roughly 9.09% for certain providers, that Pathways Adolescent Center's newly added shelter would bill $615 per day (below the state maximum), and that the YWCA of Carlisle's per-diem increase to $31.30 reflected a broader rate change set by its oversight coalition; the YWCA's county maximum annual payment remained $7,000.

Stacy Snyder presented a memorandum of understanding with the Cumberland County Library System to replace the 2015 MOU and prior commission grant MOUs; Snyder said the library board had reviewed and approved the revised MOU. Robert Barnard asked the board to approve a three-year, $10,108.80 contract with DocuSign to enable digital signatures in the Infor CloudSuite contract management module; Barnard said use beyond contracts (for example, HR onboarding) had been discussed but not yet adopted.

Human resources director Holly Sherman reported a five-year third-party administrator contract renewal for workers' compensation with a 7% increase and a property and liability insurance renewal that raises the annual premium about 20% to $981,360 effective July 1. \"This is a significant increase in insurance,\" Sherman said; commissioners thanked her staff for thorough work and discussed pursuing additional vendor options for future renewals.

Miranda Milton presented several amendments and a long list of early-intervention providers for MHIDD, including both increases for some providers and decreases for others based on current-year service levels; Milton noted the increases were state-funded and that contracts might need revision if additional services become necessary. Elizabeth Grant presented an addendum increasing construction costs by $5,500 for the Middle Spring Creek Stream Restoration at Branch Creek Children's Park, bringing that project's county-funded total to $47,500 and noting the increase would be paid from DEP Clean Water Countywide Action Plan 2025 funding. The board approved the block of contracts and amendments by motion and voice vote.

The meeting record shows the items were presented and approved in block; commissioners did not request separate roll-call votes or detailed contract documents during the meeting. Several presenters cited funding sources (state allocations, DEP Clean Water funds, and capped county contributions) and service-level reasons for rate changes.","mediaType","Video","parentTitle","Board of Commissioners Meeting June 19, 2025","oneSentenceSummary","The Cumberland County Board of Commissioners approved a block of contracts and amendments covering aging services, children and youth providers, a library MOU, a DocuSign agreement and a conservation project addendum.","taxTitle","Cumberland County, Pennsylvania","taxId",18153,"location","headline","shortSummary",{"_33":75,"_35":36,"_37":38,"_39":76,"_41":77,"_43":78,"_45":79,"_47":80,"_49":81,"_51":82,"_53":83,"_55":56,"_57":58,"_59":84,"_61":62,"_63":64,"_65":85,"_67":68,"_69":70,"_71":68,"_72":56,"_73":56},6191768,"Commissioners award firearms purchase contract after single bid of $47,298.86",28,277000,305000,"/Search/View?dp=1&key=4428988-ebe920d76f2a6a40c6a0493643bfa494&start=277&end=305","https://assets.pipeline.soar.com/4428988-ebe920d76f2a6a40c6a0493643bfa494/thumbnail_277000.jpg","/articles/6191768/Cumberland-County/Pennsylvania/Commissioners-award-firearms-purchase-contract-after-single-bid-of-4729886","https://secure.pipeline.soar.com/6191768-34cb2e8fc85cb618a1b8440fc325d7af/orig.mp4?Expires=1771034969&Signature=nW85mQuTbkIFXoaZVvvcvnRVtG1OephxEORcO6C0d4UPvwjrzKKO0bLUoawfailxug4lZUpwVXn96YHkwuEA5gdo627MRZsHCApKFsHtHuDlehGgiPxesZw0Ze2QcQOpR-WxB3TdsA2OEE7Z74PUlTEiYOMUbojy1V79ORwh7dL3zwWTKCddkMub9J9YGMwCCWK94sTppNXIKkEAmuYYIRqI8IKobHIwX45~t9-emmtQhelL-V7w~bll~yFTMj6TJCP1rmyPeOKG1R78OYhSTkUz~R3CTJswn6M4CmCmt6YX7uExhGyKa9zb8Vb9rTSZ10WBumAlJPNMSCIAaqwCFQ__&Key-Pair-Id=KUT5TJCACFTXG","The Cumberland County Board of Commissioners voted to award a contract for the purchase of new firearms for the sheriff's office after the county received a single bid.

Sheriff's Office presenter Greg Ickler told the commissioners the county received one bid from Whitner Public Safety Group for $47,298.86 and asked the board to award the contract \"with Republic Safety in that amount.\" The commissioners moved and seconded the motion and approved it by voice vote.

The transcript does not record additional competitive bids, evaluation criteria, or whether Republic Safety is the same entity as the bidder named in the bid submission. The meeting record shows the county received one bid and approved awarding a contract at the bid amount; no further contract documents or execution dates were provided during the meeting.

No public comment or opposition on the award was recorded during the discussion, and no amendments or contingencies were announced at the time of approval.","The Cumberland County Board of Commissioners approved a contract award for new firearms for the sheriff's office after receiving one bid.

The letter, introduced during the commissioners' regular meeting, aligns county officials with SRTA's request to buy new buses, equip a planned facility on Cameron Street and convert the Cumberland and Dolphin fixed-route bus systems to compressed natural gas. \"For every federal dollar we bring into the project, it decreases the amount of state funding,\" SRTA representative Kirk Stoner said, urging support.

The request to USDOT would supply federal funds for vehicle procurement and facility equipment; Stoner told the commissioners that increasing federal share reduces the required local match from participating counties. Commissioners moved and seconded approval of the letter; the motion passed on an aye vote recorded during the meeting.

No county funding commitment beyond the letter of support was approved at the meeting. County officials did not detail the precise local-match percentage or the county's potential dollar exposure during the discussion. Stoner said the proposed facility on Cameron Street \"will be under construction in the near future,\" but did not provide a construction schedule or completion date.

The letter of support does not itself obligate Cumberland County to contribute funds; it signals the county's backing of SRTA's federal funding application, which the U.S. Department of Transportation must review and approve. The commissioners took no additional action related to the project at the meeting.","The Cumberland County Board of Commissioners voted to send a letter of support for SRTA's $80 million application to the U.S. Department of Transportation Bus and Bus Facilities and Low or No Emission grant program to buy buses, equip a new Cameron Street facility and convert local fixed-route buses to compressed natural gas (CNG).","actionData","errors"]
