The first of two monthly Susquenana County Commissioner’s meetings was held on Wednesday, the 14th of May at the meeting room in the Courthouse. Called to order at 9 A.M., all Commissioners were present, including Commissioners Hall, Giangrieco, and Warren. The meeting moved directly to the Salary Board Agenda to address changes.

A motion was then made by Commissioner Warren to eliminate five part-time Corrections Officer positions and create five full-time positions, which would be filled by the part-time Corrections Officers already holding those positions, this, upon recommendation of Nicholas Conigliaro, Warden.

Mr. Bocella took the reins on announcing the Ray Kroc Achievement Award at the May 12th Montrose school board work session. This award was given annually to a junior high student who exemplified citizenship, leadership, scholarship, and sportsmanship, and who deserved the respect of classmates and instructors. Calling him the winner and proud stockholder in the McDonald's corporation (with one share of stock), Mr. Bocella drew the attention of those present to Jerome “Romey” Washo. Mr. Caterson said that he knew that there was usually a certificate and a medal to be given. As the McDonald's representative wasn't present that night, however, he assumed the student would get them at a later date. The board had Jerome come to the front of the room and shake hands with each member, as was the tradition.
