The Montgomery County Commission heard presentations from three applicants seeking appointment to the District 6 County Commission seat on Jan. 5 and will vote at the formal commission meeting on Jan. 12.
Chris Lancia opened with a statement acknowledging former Commissioner Michael Langford and describing his experience in the Army, nonprofit leadership and state government. Lancia said he would prioritize listening, stewardship and practical management of growth pressures on roads and schools, and said, "Belonging is not a buzzword. It is the outcome of good governance."
Clayton Breuder called for deliberative selection and said his four years observing the commission give him insight into how the body operates. He cited experience with veterans treatment court, recovery court and other local courts and emphasized being a local, accessible contact for constituents on issues such as potholes, schools and zoning.
Randy Albert highlighted long-term local business and volunteer service, prior brief service as an appointed commissioner, and civic engagement with Cunningham board and local volunteer organizations; he asked the commission for the opportunity to serve District 6 again.
