Lycoming County Commissioners Meeting 10-22-26

At its October 22, 2026 meeting, the Lycoming County Commissioners approved financing and contract actions. They approved a general-obligation capital note ordinance to fund the county’s share of the Greater Williamsport levee rehabilitation project; the note is structured for three years, with the principal amount not stated in the transcript. Commissioners also approved Resolution 2026-24 for a $5.5 million tax and revenue anticipation note, a short-term drawdown facility due by year-end. The county said it had advanced about $5.6 million for the levee work and was awaiting state or federal reimbursement, creating a cash-flow gap. Resolution 2026-23 also designated an official to review and submit Department of Military and Veterans Affairs applications and related compliance documents, including funding applications.

Other approved operating expenses included a five-year Bicon Industrials protection plan for approximately 268 cameras for $5,226; a one-year renewal of Central Square financial software for $80,046.32, payable in 2027; and a three-year Comcast Communications agreement for prison phone lines, with no amount specified. Commissioners also approved an as-needed legal services arrangement for court matters at $90 per hour, plus $30 per hour for support staff; the contractor was not identified. The transcript indicates approvals by motion, including a slate of additional items whose details and amounts are unclear.
