[RandySF]

Luzerne County officials are placing boulders around the Penn Place building in downtown Wilkes-Barre, home to the county's election bureau, as a safety precaution ahead of next month's general election.

The work was underway on Tuesday.

Luzerne County Manager Romilda Crocamo said the installation is in keeping with recommendations made by the U.S. Department of Homeland Security, Luzerne County Manager Romilda Crocamo said, and will remain in place after the election.

"This is a measure taken to safeguard staff, the public and the ballots," Crocamo said.
