Noble County Drainage Board reorganizes for 2026, names vice chair and confirms attorney nominee
Summary
The Noble County Drainage Board closed out 2025, began its 2026 organization, appointed Anita Hester as vice chair, and approved Dennis Craft as board attorney and a secretary nomination by voice votes.
The Noble County Drainage Board convened, closed out business from 2025 and began organization for 2026, taking nominations for leadership and staff appointments.
During the organizational portion of the meeting, an unnamed member moved to close out 2025 and the motion carried by voice vote after members responded "aye." The board then proceeded with nominations and voting for 2026 leadership. Anita Hester was confirmed as vice chair by voice vote. The board also moved to nominate Dennis Craft as board attorney and referenced Geneva for the board secretary role; that motion was seconded and approved by voice vote.
Board members discussed joint-board assignments for multiple counties and accepted the slate of 2026 joint board members as presented. Janetta distributed the list of joint members for counties including Allen County, Cozasco County, Grange County and Woodley County; the assignments were approved by voice vote.
The meeting record shows these were voice votes with members responding "aye." The transcript does not provide a roll-call tally of individual votes or counts for these motions.
The board deferred approval of previously distributed minutes to allow further review by members.
Next procedural steps noted during the meeting include circulating and signing the DOC work-group contract (addressed later in the agenda) and completing routine administrative follow-ups for the new year.
