Summary

The Lee County Board of Supervisors elected Mike Tidwell as chair and approved a procedural amendment allowing board members to receive meeting agendas electronically once equipment is available. The board also confirmed meeting dates and made a temporary vice-chair appointment.

Mike Tidwell was elected chairman of the Lee County Board of Supervisors during the board's Jan. 20 annual meeting in Johnson, Virginia. A board member moved to elect Tidwell; the motion was seconded and the board approved the election.

The board also appointed 'Mister Flannery' to preside in the mover's absence and voted to keep the regular meeting schedule unchanged. During a rules-and-procedure discussion, a supervisor proposed an amendment to section 5-2 of the board rules to allow agendas to be delivered electronically once the county provides devices. The board approved adding an electronic-delivery option so members who choose it would not require a paper packet.

Board members reiterated logistical items for the coming year and approved routine procedural business at the meeting's start. The board recessed at the end of its business to schedule interviews for county administrator candidates on Jan. 27.
