10/15/2026 Lebanon County Commissioner Meeting

The Lebanon County Commissioners’ October 15, 2026 meeting included several spending and funding actions. The board approved an agreement with RKL Virtual Management Solutions for a county employee compensation market update at $3,850, with additional services available at $285–$345 per hour and total costs capped at $7,500. It also considered two change orders for courthouse asbestos abatement totaling $29,619.53 ($8,063.52 and $21,556.01). The transcript indicates the change orders were presented with a motion and second, but does not clearly capture the final vote. Commissioners adopted an amended hotel-tax ordinance requiring tourism operators to retain records for seven years and moving allocation details to resolution. They debated allocating revenue among the tourism promotion agency, the Expo, and In the Net; a 55%/42%/3% split was proposed, but the resolution’s final disposition is unclear in the transcript. A workshop to discuss allocations and supporting financial information was suggested.

The board approved a Community Development Block Grant budget resolution that shifted funds from under-budget street and housing projects to other street improvements and first-time homebuyer programs; the vote included one ‘no.’ The discussion included a county housing-rehabilitation application for $750,000 and South Lebanon Township reallocations of $33,565 and $32,557. The board also approved the State Food Purchase Program agreement and a fair-housing resolution, and considered a support letter for Lebanon City Fire Station 2’s renovation funding application and a $5,000 grant request for Saint James Players’ signage project. Public comment included a request for monthly reporting on 287 program funds; no action was recorded on that request. The commissioners also approved routine financial and personnel items and received notice that budget hearings would begin the following week.
