Commissioners to visit D.C., Harrisburg

The Clearfield County Commissioners are planning a trip to Washington, D.C. and Harrisburg to meet with local representatives in Congress and the state legislature.
Commissioner John Sobel made the suggestion at yesterday's workshop meeting. He said he hopes the trip would be similar to a trade mission in which the commissioners can meet with all of the local representatives to discuss the economy and other issues Clearfield County is facing.
He said this is especially true now that Clearfield County is emerging as a major energy producer in ethanol, natural gas and coal.
Commissioner Joan Robinson McMillen said it was a good idea and said it would be a good opportunity for the commissioners to explain the impact state and federal mandates and budget cuts can have on local government.
Sobel suggested they take the trip during a slow period in the summer.
The commissioners also held a special meeting to reorganize, and Sobel was elected chairman
Sobel and his fellow Republican Commissioner, McMillen, being the majority party, alternate the chairmanship from year to year. Mark McCracken is the third commissioner.
Kim Kesner was reappointed as solicitor, and Kevin Hudock was hired as deputy controller at a salary of $32,000 per year.
The commissioners also approved the 2010 salaries list for county employees. Non-unionized employees received a 2-percent increase in wages, and unionized employees such as employees at the Clearfield County Jail and Children, Youth and Family Services received a 3-percent increase.
