The Board of County Commissioners held a workshop and special meeting on November 20, 2023, to address key personnel matters and procedural requirements. The meeting began with a motion regarding the status of Ms. Haywood, allowing her to retain her seat until her term's expiration while waiving the homestead exemption requirement. The motion received a favorable response, passing with a supermajority vote of 4 to 1.
Following this, the board discussed the situation concerning Mr. Davies, who is not a registered voter. Previous discussions indicated that the board had waived this requirement in the past, but concerns were raised about the implications of doing so again. After deliberation, a motion was made to not allow Mr. Davies to complete his term due to his non-compliance with the registered voter requirement. This motion also passed with a vote of 4 to 1.
The meeting concluded shortly thereafter, with the board adjourning following the discussions on these personnel matters. The outcomes reflect the board's commitment to adhering to established requirements while navigating complex individual circumstances.
