FRANKLIN, Pa. (EYT) — The Venango County Commissioners Tuesday agreed to a contract with Shingledecker Welding to repair three bridges in the county at a cost of $46,000.
According to Venango County Planning Commission Executive Director Jason Ruggiero, two of the bridges are in Jackson Township and a third is in Frenchcreek Township.
The bridge contracts highlighted the monthly commissioner’s meeting that was mostly routine business.
CLEANING CONTRACT AUTHORIZED
A three-year contract to expire September 1, 2021, was authorized with Contempo Tech Cleaning in the amount of $159,600.00 per year.
Contempo will provide custodial services for six county buildings.
POLICY PUT IN PLACE FOR RETIREMENT OVERPAYMENTS
At the Retirement Board meeting that was held before the Commissioner’s meeting, the board set a policy for how accidental overpayments are reimbursed.
If the overpayment is $100.00 or less, the county will reimburse the retirement fund. If the overpayment is more than $100.00, then it will be the responsibility of the person overpaid to reimburse the retirement fund.
