Commissioners discuss change to CAD board nomination after initial nominee declines
Summary
After a previously nominated candidate asked not to serve, Scurry County commissioners discussed rescinding a nomination and approving a school district-recommended replacement, but no formal vote was recorded in the transcript.
Scurry County commissioners discussed and moved to change a prior nomination to a county-related board after the original nominee declined to serve.
During old-business discussion, a commissioner said the county had previously nominated Jimmy McMillan for a board position but that McMillan asked that his name be withdrawn. The commissioner said the school had nominated Will Collier and that Collier told county staff he was willing to be the nominee.
A motion was made to rescind the earlier nomination of Jimmy McMillan and to nominate Will Collier in his place. The transcript records the motion and some discussion but does not record a second or a formal vote on the motion.
Why it matters: the nomination affects who will represent the county on the unnamed board and fills a vacancy before a future deadline; the county representative said there will be another opportunity to name a nominee before September if the court does not act.
The record shows that McMillan declined the nomination and that Will Collier indicated willingness to serve when contacted by county staff. The transcript does not specify the board's formal name, the legal authority for the appointment, or the final outcome of the motion.
