A county staff member said the Cumberland County strategic plan aims to "make Cumberland County a place where all residents can reach their full potential," and cited recently approved requests for qualifications and contracts for the Anne Street Environmental Complex that will "help expand our landfill capacity for future years."

The comment, delivered during the meeting, tied the county's strategic plan goals — including "quality growth and smart development" through board strategic initiatives — to procurement actions the speaker said are intended to increase landfill capacity and position the county to submit for Government Finance Officers Association (GFOA) awards. "Allow submission and achievement of GFOA awards, distinguishing our county as a leader in financial and budgetary matters," the staff member said.

The transcript does not specify dollar amounts, contract terms, timelines, or the precise procurements that were approved. It states only that RFQs and contracts were "recently approved" for the Anne Street Environmental Complex; the meeting record provided does not include motions, vote tallies, or a procurement schedule.

County officials did not provide in the excerpt a projected date for expanded capacity or identify funding sources for the work. Because those implementation details were not included in the recorded remarks, they are not reported here.

The remarks connect the county's strategic-plan language on serving residents and supporting smart development with recent procurement activity at the environmental complex; further public records or subsequent meeting materials would be needed to confirm scope, cost and schedule for the landfill work.
