“Right now the primary issue with the county is the budget,” he said. “You have to have a plan in order to have a budget.”

Metzger is a co-owner of Metzger Executive Apartments in Montoursville and a member of the National Rifle Association.

In addition to his desire to grow the county’s financial base, Metzger said employee satisfaction is low and retirements and resignations have been high in recent years.
