(Beaver, Pa) The Beaver County Board of Commissioners met Wednesday morning for their weekly work session.

A situation was brought to the Commissioners attention regarding trees at the Courthouse. There are currently trees standing higher than the Courthouse and are said to be creating problems, particularly at this time of year, with drains on the roof. The County will be taking bids on having the trees trimmed to heights below the roof.

Another topic of discussion brought up once again was the former Beaver County Times building. The county has arranged another appraisal of the building from an Erie County based company. Treasurer Sandie Egley asked the Commissioners for confirmation that the company has no connections to the Courthouse in which they replied that they do not. The appraisal company is Sammartino, Stout & Lo Presti, Inc.

The Commissioners hold their work session weekly as needed on Wednesdays at 10am in the Courthouse.
