Summary

The DeKalb County Board of Commissioners approved appointments of Daniel Schmidt and Nicole Schroeder to the county health board; both appointments will begin July 28 and require the chair's signature.

The DeKalb County Board of Commissioners voted May 27 to appoint two people to the county health board.

County staff presented two nominees and said both would begin their terms July 28. Staff identified Daniel Schmidt as filling Janice Arrington’s position and Nicole Schroeder as filling Andrew Dirksen’s position. The board approved each appointment by voice vote and the appointments will be finalized after the commissioner’s signature.

The commissioners moved and seconded each appointment in succession. The board recorded the motions as carried by voice vote and directed staff to complete the paperwork and obtain the necessary signature to formalize the appointments.
