Luzerne County-owned properties will require an estimated $78.5 million in capital repairs over the next decade, according to a new report from consulting group CMTA/ICS. The administration retained the firm last year to assess long-term infrastructure needs and help formulate a comprehensive maintenance plan for county facilities.

A summary posted on the county website identifies 23 properties requiring critical upgrades, with needed repairs spanning electrical, mechanical, plumbing, and roofing systems. Representatives from the consulting group are scheduled to attend upcoming meetings of the county council's Operational Services and Correctional Services committees to detail the findings and review possible funding options with officials.
