Chair withdraws District 2 appointment recommendation; seat to remain vacant until April election
Summary
The chair withdrew their recommendation to fill the District 2 County Board vacancy, citing politicization of the selection; the seat will remain vacant until the April election when District 2 voters will select a representative.
During the meeting's early business, the chair told the board they were withdrawing their recommendation to fill the District 2 supervisor vacancy. The chair said the recommendation process had become "rather politicized and rather contentious," and that, rather than appoint, the seat will remain vacant until the April election so District 2 residents can choose a representative.
No replacement appointment was made at the meeting and the board did not vote on an interim appointment. Several supervisors had indicated interest in maintaining nonpartisan selection criteria and ensuring transparency for future appointments.
