Supervisor Nathan Magsick was sworn in for a third term on the Fresno County Board of Supervisors, and Supervisors Gary Bredefeld and Luis Chavez also took the oath of office during the meeting in Fresno County.
The board designated Supervisor Buddy Mendez as this year’s chairman and Supervisor Bridal as vice chairman. In keeping with tradition, Supervisor Mendez presented outgoing Chairman Maxig with a commemorative gift.
The oaths and officer designations recorded in this excerpt were ceremonial and did not include votes on policy items. A meeting speaker made a lighthearted remark referencing Supervisor Magsick’s prior cycling accident and said, “I’m gonna start off with my first gift, which is a set of training wheels.” The speaker also invited viewers to subscribe to the Fresno County YouTube channel to watch meetings.
The actions recorded — the swearing-in of three supervisors and the designation of the board’s chair and vice chair — reflect routine organizational business following the seating of elected officials. No additional policy motions, budgetary decisions or ordinance actions appear in the provided transcript excerpt.
The brief exchange included the presentation of a commemorative gift to outgoing Chairman Maxig; the transcript does not specify the circumstances of the gift beyond the presentation, nor does it show any formal vote related to the officer designations.
