Buffalo County commissioners nominate leadership and complete oaths of office
Summary
Commissioners nominated and approved Don as chair and Danita as vice chair, recited oaths of office, and handled related administrative formalities during the county's organizational session.
The Buffalo County Commissioners reorganized leadership at their meeting, approving nominations for chair and vice chair and completing oath-of-office formalities.
Unidentified Speaker 3 opened nominations for chair; Don was nominated and, after a second, approved by voice vote. The board then nominated Danita for vice chair; the motion was seconded and carried despite one dissenting voice. Commissioners proceeded to administer the oath of office, reciting, "I do solemnly swear I will support the constitution of The United States and the constitution of South Dakota," and discussed signing and notarization logistics.
The reorganizational business also included routine administrative steps tied to the change in leadership: distributing oath forms, confirming signature logistics, and scheduling follow-up to ensure documents are filed and notarized.
The changes take effect immediately for meeting procedural purposes; commissioners noted they will return to other agenda items and follow up on outstanding administrative tasks at the next meeting.
