Greenwood council confirms board appointments and elects leadership for 2025
Summary
At its Jan. 6 meeting the Greenwood Common Council filled several board posts (one postponed), confirmed one-year appointments, and elected council leadership for the year.
The Greenwood Common Council on Jan. 6 confirmed a slate of board appointments, postponed one police commission appointment and elected council officers for 2025.
Council confirmed Councilmember Lexi (recorded as the nominee) to continue serving on the Plan Commission and as the city's representative to the Johnson County Solid Waste District Management Board; both nominations were approved by unanimous voice votes. Linda Gibson was reappointed to the Social Board of Directors for a one-year term, and Paul St. Pierre was reappointed to the Greenwood Community Development Corporation. The council said these are one-year appointments. The appointment to the Police Merit Commission was postponed because the appointee had not confirmed availability.
The council also elected its officers for the year. The presiding officer at the Jan. 6 meeting nominated Campbell for council president; the council recorded the nominee's election by voice vote. Linda Gibson was nominated and elected council vice president by voice vote. The transcript records the votes as unanimous for the appointments and officer elections; no opposition or abstentions were recorded.
Councilmembers asked members interested in serving on an external conference team to send an email ahead of the Jan. 20 meeting; council staff said nominations for that three-member team will be taken at the next meeting. The transcript records routine procedural discussion about nominations and the confirmation votes but does not include biographies or term-limit details for the appointees.
