# Berks County Board of Commissioners Meeting 9/17/26 | Berks County, PA

The Berks County Board of Commissioners held a meeting on September 17, 2026, which included a procurement-related resolution concerning Penn State Health's bond financing. The board approved a resolution allowing Penn State Health to issue up to $230 million in bonds through the Cumberland County Municipal Authority to finance a project that includes a complete overhaul of the electronic health record system at facilities in Berks County. This conduit financing does not involve any financial obligation or credit risk to Berks County but requires the county's approval for tax-exempt status under IRS regulations. The meeting also featured extensive recognition of National Recovery Month, with multiple speakers sharing personal recovery stories and highlighting the county's support for addiction treatment and recovery services. Financial reports from the county treasurer and controller were presented, and various community events were announced. No other procurement or contracting actions were taken during the meeting.
