THE ISSUE The Manheim Township Board of Commissioners voted unanimously March 8 to approve a resolution supporting the creation of a county health department and calling on the Lancaster County commissioners to create one. That board sent its resolution to the countyâs 60 municipalities and 17 school districts seeking their elected officialsâ support for such an agency.

The policy, formalized by resolution on March 2, says that if the borough needs to consult an outside expert to answer a question from the public, the requestor must provide billing information in advance so that any associated cost can be passed on.
