Commission honors two former commissioners and approves airport and library appointments
Summary
The commission passed resolutions honoring the lives and service of former Commissioners Luther T. Mercer and James E. Fuller, presented recognitions to family members, and approved appointments: Kim Tedford to the Jackson Massa County Airport Authority and Tony Black and Ron Kirkland as library liaisons.
Madison County commissioners on Nov. 17 adopted resolutions honoring the lives and public service of former Commissioners Luther T. Mercer and James E. Fuller.
The board read both resolutions, moved and seconded them, and approved each by voice vote. Family members were invited forward to receive a certificate, a county plaque and a nameplate recognizing Mercer’s service; Fuller’s family also joined the presentation.
In business items, Commissioner Wall nominated Kim Tedford to a five-year vacant seat on the Jackson Massa County Airport Authority; the nomination was seconded and approved. Commissioner Alexander nominated Tony Black and Ron Kirkland to serve one-year terms as library liaisons; those nominations were seconded and approved without objection.
Why it matters: the resolutions recognized multi-decade public service by two longtime county officials, while the appointments fill seats on a local airport authority and library liaison positions charged with supporting county services.
