Two county workers get higher job classification
Lawrence County commissioners voted 2 0 to reclassify custodial workers Ronald Boughter and William McFall from level one to two. The move, with one abstention, requires Salary Board approval and retroactive pay of 76 dollars a month plus truck driving rights. Arbitration had ordered the reclassification and back pay dating from August 30, 1986, amid an AFSCME unfair labor practice charge.

Lawrence County Emergency Management will issue identification cards to all county hospital and emergency personnel including volunteer firefighters. Commissioner DeCarbo said the $814 project supports hospital access during emergencies, recalling 1985 tornado activity at Ellwood City Hospital when access was denied without IDs. Eppinger questioned spending and Hill View Manor staffing, while petitions opposed pari mutuel dog racing in Pennsylvania.
