Summary

At a called meeting, the Newton County Public Facilities Authority approved a slate of officers: Commissioner Andre Cooper as chair, Commissioner Leanne Long as vice chair and Commissioner Jackie B. Smith as secretary. The appointments were made by motion and second and approved by the authority.

The Newton County Public Facilities Authority voted to appoint Commissioner Andre Cooper as chair, Commissioner Leanne Long as vice chair and Commissioner Jackie B. Smith as secretary at a called meeting of the authority.

The nominations were offered during the meeting after a brief discussion about rotating leadership. A motion to adopt the slate — naming Cooper chair, Long vice chair and Smith secretary — was made and seconded; the motion carried, though the transcript does not record individual mover/second names or a roll-call tally for this specific motion.

Commissioners and staff present discussed letting multiple members have the opportunity to serve in leadership roles on the authority. The appointments were entered into the record before the authority moved on to a separate resolution about financing for a new E-911 center.

The meeting then continued to consideration of financing authorizations; the authority adjourned after that business.
